This past weekend was nice, we left saturday for Karuizawa, which is a mountain resort town where the school has a seminar house. They have real beds so that was nice, as was having a single room with my own bathroom. The students seemed to have a good time and I also got to catch up with some old friends that were on the trip as well. Sunday was nice as we visited an onsen (hot spring that is segregated by sex and nude) so that was nice and relaxing.

Having arrived back in Tokyo late Monday afternoon, today (Tuesday) was my first day at the office this week. I spent the day reading the works that I will be giving the students tomorrow and working on my lesson plan till noon, at which time Bryan was done teaching for the day and we took lunch and headed off to the immigrations office. We spent about an hour waiting in basically a DMV and finally received our visa's. Tomorrow after teaching we will go down to the Ward office and apply for Alien registration.


Bed time.
