2012 Day 9: Shinkansen & Osaka host family


[We said goodbye to our Yokohama host family and got the fast bullet train
(Shinkansen) to Osaka station]
I rode a bullet train for the first time; it was pretty cool. It's really fast
and the scenery was really nice along the way too. The ride to Osaka was on the
bullet train was about two hours. After that, I was finally able to meet my last
host family. It was a large family; five people, plus a relative and their
Grandmother, all lived under the same roof. They were extremely nice and
generous, and I had a lot of fun playing with their youngest son and two other
children. We played Mario on the Wii and the parents made me Yakisoba and
Takoyaki, which was delicious! :)
