Kizuna 13 Day 12 Last Day in Japan


Today’s report is from Aiyzha

Today, after breakfast, we brought all our luggage down to the main lobby.

Around 8:30 we walked to the subway station. We took the subway to go see a presentation by an organization called NICE. We found out that this organization manages and send volunteers to different areas affected by the tsunami. We also heard 4 volunteers talk about their experiences while volunteering – what they did, who they met etc.




Looking for this kind of opportunities: 
VFP <http://www.vfp.org/>
SCIus <http://www.sci-ivs.org/> 
After that, we walked back to the hotel and then went to the government building across the street for lunch. We shopped there for a while, but since the restaurant we were supposed to eat at was closed, we walked to a convenience store, got lunch and ate it outside. It was sunny and very nice outside (65 degrees!).  

We returned to the hotel then around 1:15, grabbed all our luggage and got on the bus to go to the airport.


We had an excellent time in Japan! Our next mission is to share what we have seen and learned to Eau Claire Area  School and Community.  Stay tuned for our action plans!
