Today was really, really, really FUN! I got up early with Dad and we went on the train to Zushi where Sieffre and his family live. We met Sieffre and Steffan at the station and we walked together to their school.

At first, they all practiced for a sports day that is coming up. After that I went with Sieffre to his classes. His first class was when they practiced Japanese writing. I got to learn how to write my name in Japanese. I used a pencil to write, not a brush, that’s just for calligraphy. After writing class we had history class and then we went to math where they are learning fractions too. After that, we had lunch in the cafeteria. I had spaghetti with sauce and a bun and milk.

After lunch we had time to play and then we took pictures of the class and then I went home. I had a great day because it was lots of fun to play with kids that speak a different language from me. I learned that kids around the world are a lot like my friends at home, they just like to have fun. By the way, whenever the teacher left the classroom, it was chaos. And then when the teacher came back into the classroom, everybody went back to their seats and paid attention.

It was a great day!!
