Well, hello once again! The trip to Nagoya was ok. I feel pretty accomplished for taking the train and all that all by myself, but I was disappointed in myself for not venturing out farther. I was just too scared of getting lost and missing my train home! I’ll be braver next time. Just you wait and see!

I was also disappointed in the shopping. I’d heard there was this wonderful shopping center there, but I quickly discovered it was WAY too expensive for me! And apparently the “in” thing in Japan right now is American clothing. I can get that for less at Goodwill!

I got some interesting pictures, though, like my lunch (above), and a women’s Japanese toilet! Go ahead, laugh at me. I took a picture of the potty. You might be just a little shocked, though. I haven’t tried it (yet). It’s a little frightening, to tell you the truth!

More to come! Oh, and I got more post cards! Send addresses!
Love, Whit
