Peregrination
So the Akiruno Student Cultural Exchange has been rescheduled for February. We're all staying at the log cabins owned by Mr. Ueda (who's son Shigeru was part of the 3rd exchange). Unfortunately, fear and threat of H1N1 has reduced our experience in Akiruno from a 10 day home and school exchange program for our students to 10 days in Japan visiting tourist spots and a one day tour and visit of Akiruno City and their schools and potential welcome and farewell festivities. We'll be traveling to Kyoto and will stay there for 3 days and 2 nights so that should be a good field trip. Even more unfortunately not even all of that is 100% finalized so these things are still subject to change.
I want to book some personal travel and even tempted myself by visiting the website of the tour group I used through China. What a tease. I'm so tempted to journey to see Machu Pichu though. Ecuador has been on the list for at least 3 years.
Who knows maybe I'll venture off to Iceland this winter for some Northern Lights.
Mom is talking about getting the whole family to the Grand Canyon this summer too so maybe I should hold off on personal plans.
Plus, there is of course the undetermined date of my return to Hawaii.
