Sorry I didn't blog last night... I turned in around 9:30 and the computer was being really slow. So I just dumped all my photos into flickr and went to bed.
I'm just going to write a bit before I get ready this morning.
Our elementary school visit was yesterday. I must write in greater detail soon, but the experience was great. My favorite repeated experience was when the kids would sound out my name by reading the Japanese characters on my name tag: "Bah-bu.... Cruh-bu-zz."
Then there was the 4th grade class that I had lunch with in their classroom. They took such good care of me. There was one boy in particular at my table who took it upon himself to by my "helper." Shuhei made sure that I knew what was going on. They were all so cute.
We Americans spent a lot of time signing our autograph! It seemed like some of the kids were trying to "collect all 19!"
Well, I must go get ready for another day. Today's the high school visit, where I am to give the opening speech! Wish me luck!

I love the story about the 4th graders.
Your mom wants you to know that she is sorry she has not written much this week, but you know how it is when you have a house full...;)
