Pictures of the last year




So 2016 is gone and we have all of 2017 ahead of us...
Yeah!!!

Tuesday: Less active finding. We went to an extreme of the area, Kiyose, and we walked in the rain. That was cold. Today was a lot better than Monday evening. Everyone canceled on us. But on the bright side, we found the family that we were looking for! They were home and we are going to visit them tonight (Monday). We found a street that was an outdoor art gallery, but it was too dark for pictures.


Apple vending machine
Wednesday: today was a lot of walking. No one is really around during this time of year in Japan, and if they are, they didn't want to talk with us. Long day, not much to talk about. Eikaiwa was fun though.

Thursday: the day of planning. We did weekly and monthly planning today. It took all day. I don't really want to bore you with those details. Then we were on ping pong duty, but no one came, so I had a free lesson with Nakamura Kyōdai. I could be really good when I get back. He was going hard though, kind of scary.

Rice vending machine
Friday: Today we reaped the fruits of the phone cleaning. We have found a lot of people to teach from old PI and other files. We had a long lesson in a restaurant, weird guy, said that he used to be Jehovah's Witness or something, but wanted to meet with us.

Saturday: last day of the year and we spent it cleaning. We had really good traditional Japanese food though, I don't know what it was called, but it looked like a pot luck chicken soup. Our apartment is so clean!

Sunday: I became a samurai today! It was a long day at church and then we had a lot of personal reflection time. We have set goals and improved our study ideas, but it was all day. In Japan, New Years is more important than Christmas, so we couldn't do any effective dendō. But we can go hard this year!

Thanks for all of the support everyone, love you!
