Reunion and Farewell

Yesterday was a nice catch up with Kozue-chan, my host sister from Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture (my host during Japan Tent Program) and her boyfriend, Jose who came to Kyoto for a visit. Great chatting indeed ;-) We walked through Kyoto University, then to Ginkakuji (Silver Pavilion). It's too bad I had to rush to Osaka for errands later on the evening. See you guys again either in Kanazawa or Tokyo (or Kyoto again..!!)

After running errands in Osaka, I joined a farewell party for P'Poo and P'Koong whose term at The Royal Consulate of Thailand in Osaka is to end next week. They have been so much help for me and Jill in so many ways. We're thankful to have met both of them (finally) here in Japan. We'll surely miss you na ka. Please stay in touch. =)

Farewell Party was held at Krungthep Restaurant. Lotsa yummy food ;-)
