Day one in the land of kawaii

Uww I arrived on thursday morning around 8am at Narita airport. Three men from Rotary plus some Rotex and a soon to be finnish exchange student came to greet me at the airport. It was all very fun and seemed like they really wanted to see me. when we got out of the doors the heat was astounishing, it was so hot I could harly breath, but it's been like that everyday. Everyone in my family seemed really nice from the start, and they seemed to be willing to take me to all the places I want to see <3 Bless them. We had a unformal welcoming dinner, with most of the family and i liked the food very much. Only thing is that the japanese eat so much x_X and pickled plums... ugh...
On friday we went to the foreign registration center, the embassy of Finland... where no one spoke finnish. We also visited Roppongi and a Japanese style park. In the evening Hiroko-san took me, Mayu-chan and Ryuta-kun to a restourant to eat with Mayu-chans friends family and after that we went to the japanese festival. There was alot of dancing and other fun stuff, like fishing for gold fish and eating shaved ice. It was so much fun, and mayu and Ryuta looked so cute in their yukatas. Later we were sitting around with people studying japanese and watching a chibli film XD
Uww saturday was the traffic day. We went by train all around tokyo. Stopping at Shibuya, Tokyo center, Akihabara, Ueno, Shinjuku, Harajuku and back to Shibuya. It was so much fun to see all the different parts of Tokyo.
Sunday, what can I say, nee? We went to check out where my school was located... and where my language scool for next month as well as Olympic center were. But hey after this me and Chisato-oneesan went to Harajuku to shop, and man i tell you, it really is heaven. I was shaking like hell. When we went to this shop and i tryed on this outfit people actually stopped and said things like "so cute", "just like a doll"... so i ended up buying the outfit XD check out the shopping section please <3 In the evening we went to a traditional japanese restourant for my official welcoming party, it was so much fun. I really enjoy my family.

On tuesday Hiroko-oneesan and Chie-oneesan want me to take them to Harajuku ^^" yei, more shopping <3

uww and i heard my next host family lives in a temple XD
