Here's E with her friend, N, gathering before heading on the plane to Japan! They were all so excited.
B took a moment to tell sensei thank you for the birthday card she sent him. She had to send it early as she'll be in Japan when his birthday rolls around and she wrote (in Japanese, of course) on the card that he isn't supposed to open it until his birthday.
E ran into some sort of problem at the ticketing counter and had to call sensei over to help resolve it. She said listening to sensei's conversational Japanese was pretty mind-blowing. E said she understood about three words of the conversation between sensei and the ticket agent. The Japan Airline flight left O'Hare at 12:45 p.m. and is expected to arrive in Tokyo (non-stop) at 3:35 p.m. Monday. From there, they'll take a bus to another airport then fly to Akita, where they are staying. They're expected to meet their host families Monday night.
And I always take a picture of the kids with Andy for Father's Day so this year that happened to be at the airport.
After we dropped E off at the airport, we headed to Door County, Wis., for a short summer vacation.
We must be in Egg Harbor. The town has 50 decorated eggs on display for its 50th anniversary. This one was covered with Green Bay Packer colors.
