This week the theme is about around the world. The kids have enjoyed leaning about different countries, and some of them already know so much that they have enjoyed sharing their knowledge with the other children. So far we have talked about Australia, Egypt, and China. We will be talking about Mexico and England this week as well.
This past weekend we went to Ginza. It is another shopping area of Tokyo. Most of it is comprised of designer stores. We went to Forever 21 and the Sony showroom. That night we went to the Sumida River fireworks festival. I have never seen so many people in my life! I almost got swept away in the crowds! The fireworks were beautiful and the show lasted an hour and a half! They had all kinds of fireworks including Pikachu ones!
This coming weekend we have lots of plans! We have a goodbye dinner on Friday night because two of our coworkers are leaving early and it will only be two Fridays after that for it to be the end for everyone. On Saturday we plan on going to another festival. Apparently, Japan has festivals every weekend of the summer!
That's all for now. Check in next week to hear more about our weekend adventures.
From Tokyo, With Love,
Rachael
