Fukui City and BBQ!
Although my stay in Fukui city was really brief, here are some photos of what I was while I was there and not busy in orientation:
The main government buildings in Fukui city are based around the remains of Fukui castle, which burned down years ago. It is surrounded by a moat and has some great scenery.

NOOOOOO!DRUGS!!!! BE POISONED! FLASHBACK! BE BROKEN! NO FUTURE!
Posters like this are all over the place on police boxes.
Later, we met some existing JETS and some people in the area from different programs and had a cookout at night by the riverside. The food was so was amazing! The cooks worked so hard making everything, they worked until it was so late and the entire group was really full. Then we sat by the water and lit off fireworks. It was very peaceful, and actually was the first time I was full in Japan! The next morning I left for Tsuruga.
