Greg's Visit #2

Greg and I went to a taiko lesson on Monday night. Just think giant drums...

A short train ride later...


My friend Bela took us as she had been before:





Tuesday began Greg's middle school days. The kids were excited to have a boy to talk with...







One day at middle school there was an assembly to pump the school teams up for an upcoming area championship. They each came up and did their cheers.



Here is a short video of the kendo club's


I also took him to see the giant buddha temple in Kitakata. Its much prettier in Spring!






We took a train one evening to one of my Japanese friend's house. She made a HUGE spread and wouldn't let us stop eating for a minute!







And the head of my English Conversation class had us over for dinner! Her kids are wild but super cute. We had to let them dress us up to get them to calm down for a second:






After dinner we escaped to play some Rock Band at my place!




Our last night in Aizu we went to Aizuwakamatsu [45 minutes from me and much bigger] for garlic ramen and shopping:







And then we headed for Tokyo!
