Japan Experience Day 1 - Welcome to Japan!
They traveled long distances from Europe, the Americas and Oceania. This year's Japan Experience participants finally arrived at Tokyo’s International Narita Airport yesterday, Sunday, July 26 and all seemed to have been in good spirits. Our nine students filtered into Narita Airport throughout the day, starting as early as 8am and wrapping up close to 7pm.
Seiritsu staff and home stay families met everyone at the airport, after which the students headed into the city with their respective hosts. Starting today, Monday, there were lots of great Japan Experience activities lined up which we will write about tomorrow morning since it is the end of the school day here in Tokyo.
