Kyoto!

Hello everyone!

 My dad and I just moved into our new apartment in Kyoto. Sooo exiting! There’s a tatami (long mats woven out of soft reeds) room, a regular carpeted room, a small living space with a kitchenette, and an over-sized bathroom with a separate room for the toilet and for the shower/bath. It’s probably the same size as everything else put together. All we’ve really been doing this week is scrambling to get the house in shape, unpacking and shopping and trying to get into a routine and stuff like that. We visited my school the other day and met my teacher. There’s only eight kids in my class- can you believe it?! Tomorrow’s my first day. Wish me luck!

I had a ballet lesson yesterday after more than a month break. Today I can barely walk. Enjoy your last week of summer! Hope you all have a great school year!

  1. missing you sweetie! se will seem very big when you return -- wow, only 8 other students! i am glad ballet is mostly in french so you can understand something -- are the other girls good dancers? i hope the teacher can give you some pointe shoe lessons.
    love you,

  2. That is soooo exciting. I showed my boys where Kyoto is on the globe and they could not believe they had a cousin living there.
