Today we FINALLY visited Kumamoto castle. Everyone points it out when we drive by (that and the bullet train), so it was nice to visit it. We took some great pictures. We were accompanied by two of the inbound GSE members. It was nice t spend time with them.
We had two very ethnic dishes- Chinese for lunch and German for dinner. It's interesting to see each country's take on ethnic cuisine...have you ever used chopsticks for German food? :)
In-between lunch and dinner, we quickly checked a few emails at the international center and then went to a rotarian's house for tea.
The party at the German restaurant included three of the inbound GSE members. It was a lot of fun, although the only person who spoke English at my table was Kotaro. I very much enjoyed talking to him, learning a few things about his trip to north America and his family...who I will meet in less than one week.
