My Itinerary

I fly to San Francisco and meet up with the other U.S. teachers on Tuesday at the airport.  We leave for Japan at 1:30 pm and arrive in Tokyo at 4:15 pm the next day!  We'll be in Tokyo till Friday, June 24th and then fly to our host cities - one group will fly to Hiroshima and the other group to Nara.  I am in the Nara group.

In Nara I will be completing a home-stay with a family from the town.  Then we will spend 5 days in the town. Nara was once the capital of Japan and is known for its ancient temples and shrines as well as the deer! Go here for more information on Nara.  Nara is located near Kyoto and Osaka.

After Nara, we head to Kyoto for a day of sight-seeing.  This was also once the capital of Japan and has a great number of beautiful temples!

Then it's back to Tokyo via the bullet train for a wrap-up conference with all the teachers from both the U.S. and Japan!  I leave Tokyo on July 2nd at 4pm and arrive in Phoenix at 3:30 on July 2nd!!

Question of the day: If you had this opportunity, what would you like to see or do in Tokyo? (hint go to this link to learn more about the city).  Write your answers in the comment section.

    If I had your opportunity, I would like to see their museums to see and understand their culture and history. I would also like to visit the shrines to understand their religion. And then I would like to see the Japanese friendship gardens.
