My Birthday!

Hi All!!!

I shall have to write more when I get the internet at home or when I have wireless internet at the hotel I am staying at in nara next week. But in the meantime....

I am still in stage 1 culture shock, everything is going well and I love Japan.... euphoria!

Arrived last wednesday into Takaoka and have been going non-stop since. Everyone is wonderful and the town is really nice.

Yesterday was my birthday and in true Raewyn fashion I decided to let a few people know and see what happens.... beer garden.... mentioned its's my birthday... uhoh.... next thing, one of the returning JETs starts off a happy birthday song and about 200 Japanese people get in on the action too... how embarrassing but considering that the chuhai at the beer garden was bad and the food was also bad it might just have made my night, that and the girls deciding that Karaoke was in order.

So yeah, loving Japan and about to go to Kanazawa for the day so better trot off.

Ciao for now!!!

This is your sister. Write more and put photos on! I'm dying to know how it's all going. Get back to England tomorrow and will email you a number if you want to call.

Sounds like your birthday was absolutely brilliant and definitely one to remember.

Miss you.

Your Big Fat Sister
