Well, we did it! We are all packed (except for Solomon's swords as far as I know). Tomorrow we leave for the airport around 9 A.M. and, by the miracle of the globe, arrive on the same day in the evening in Burlington. I will call from Detroit if there will be any delays.
The last couple of days have been mostly relaxing. The kids went with their hosts to all sorts of places in Inagi, Tokyo and who knows where.They went to an amusement park and had different feelings about how good it was but mainly they liked it. They also went shopping several times and have been eating things that you couldn't get them to eat if you paid them at home. Several of them said they are starting to prefer the healty Japanese diets so expect to have to throw out all your food, never go to McDonalds and live at the Japanese restaurants in Burlington. They also might want to sleep on the floor and may bow to you whenever they see you.
Our performance at the Inagi festival yesterday was a big hit and we met an amazing group of taiko drummers who we invited to Burlington for our next December festival. I will fill you in when we have more info. They are very exhiting and innovative and range in age from 10-46 but mostly the same age as our kids.
Look at my comment(Inagi City) regaridng Kids Day in Burlington.
See you tomorrow (Sunday) night
