Daisen student exchange

August 6- 12 The Nakayama Jr. High School exchange. Carol and I rushed back from Minnesota for the arrival of the Japanese exchange contingent. Here are Kozo and Carol doing their version of Iron Chef international. We really had some great Japanese and American traditional foods.
One of the annual exchange events is Halloween in August. They don't celebrate Halloween in Japan, so its a great cultural exchange.

I think Jake got the prize for ?????????

Here is Carol and myself along with Kozo, the Nakayama Jr. High School principal and sumo Denise.

Everyone had a great time at Angel's stadium after a day at Knott's.


We had Dan and Kim in for dinner as judges during the Iron Chef affair.

Here are Carol and I with the girls during the farewell party at the Meadowview club house. Once again, it was a great exchange. Thanks, Denise.....
