The first couple days on the base have been very informational. We have been able to go off base once already and that was very fun. I had my first actual Japanese meal and it wasn't that bad. The seaweed I thought had to be the most interesting, but still very good. The weather here is terribly humid. People usually take around two showers a day because we sweat so much just walking around. The people here are very nice. Somebody from Japan came to talk to us about the island and to inform us on a couple things. I found that to be the most interesting thus far. She talked about how they don't show emotions to one another they hide them on the inside. She talked about proper ways to look at someone and some phrases. They just have many different things to what I am use to in our culture. Other than that we have been able to get some camp stuff done and I am looking forward to go to my camp.
We are suppose to have nicknames for our camp and we picked the fish category...so I am Mr. Mahi :)
These are just some pictures from the first couple days. Love you all and I hope everything is going well.
