Homestay

By all accounts, the homestays are going exceedingly well.  We're all ready dreading Tuesday morning when we have to pry the Trippers from their host families to make it to our Shinkansen to head to Narita.  The amount of overt emotions that were shared upon arrival at the train station made us tear up with overwhelming pride at how close our Trippers have become in such a short time.  Below are pictures of KJ and some of school life, but you will need to hear it from the Trippers directly to feel the impact of the homestay portion of their trip experience.
