So we have actually been in India for about 5 days now. It is already getting hard to remember details about Japan. Now where were we up to????

Kokura. Sym went to RMIT with this really cool girl, Tomoko, who is Japanese and lives in Fukoaka. Her parents live about an hour away in Kokura. T0moko's brother was having a cherry blossom party so we had a bit of a reunion. Bec and Angus who were teachng english further north had come down too. It was great. Her parents where lovely. Bec and I asked if we could do anything to help prepare the evening meal but as we don't speak Japanese and she doesnt speak English, we weren't actually sure what the reply was. We decided to wash the cars instead.

The party was fun. Its amazing how a little alcohol goes a long to breaking down language barriers!
