It is soooooo hot in Nara!!! the humidity level is off the charts as well.
The Maehana's don`t use air conditioning very much in their house. When we do use it, we have to turn it off when we leave the room. We have been relying on Japanese style fans and ice cold green tea to keep us cool. I am sweating just sitting here typing this :(
I was able to experience what the Japanese consider `a small shopping center`
We had to ride bikes up a hill and then, after I missed the turn, rode into a parkway specifically designed for bikes and walking pedestrians.
The mall was sooo cool! The price of clothes was really high, but I doubt that will stop me from getting one of the awesome Japanese fashionista items...
When we got back from the mall, Tomo`s grandparents came over. I tried to introduce myself in Japanese but it is so hard to do...
We piled into the cars and set off for a Sushi resturant.
We are now getting ready to make brownies and lemonade to take to the LABO welcome party for the little kids to try.
