first night with Maehana`s

I am having a great time with the Maehana family. They are so sweet and truly genuine.
Nahomi, my host mom is bubbly and enjoys humming the song `true loves kiss` from Enchanted. Last night, Yuri went to a LABO meeting and Toshikazu, my host dad helped me out by carrying my very heavy luggage.
This morning I had plain yogurt and bread for breakfast. Tomo and I are going to ride bikes up the road to buy a couple of things from the local store, then later, in a couple of hours, Toshikazu`s parents will come to bring corn from their garden.
At 6pm, the LABO party will host a Welcome Party for me!

I can't believe your having corn! We had grille dcorn tonight for dinner and the conversation moved to you and Tomo and one of the kids, Sawyer, I think, asked if people ate corn-on-the-cob in Japan... how cool! So - do folks eat corn-on-the-cob in Japan? Inquiring minds want to know.

Can't wait to hear about the party for YOU!

Love,
Patty & Posse

in response to your comment, Patty, Japanese do eat corn on the cob... actually, Yuri, Tomo's younger sister just had some ;)
