1/3

My host mom was scheduled to come and pick me up from Proxy at 11 am. I accidentally ran into her at the tea ceremony earlier this semester and then later went to a small party with some friends of hers. But this was the first time I was going to meet more of her family besides her youngest son. She has four children, three sons and one daughter who was about my age. And one cat and one dog. It was cool to spend time with them. They made takoyaki (bather balls that are fired with various things in them but usually squid) for lunch. Then we just chatted for a while and watched a local college race on the television. Later on we had sushi for dinner. "Sushi wa daisuki!" ( I love sushi) I didn't really get a chance to talk to her older kids but it was still a really nice visit.
