Safe and sound – a visit to the Mikura school
This is a message for Pine Point parents. Everyone has arrived safe and sound here on Mikura. The ferry ride went well, and everyone looked pretty chipper. The students had breakfast and a shower and then headed up to the school to meet with the local students and teachers. So far so good! More soon!

UPDATE:
We spent the day at the Mikura school which is HUGE, GIGANTIC. It is six floors with a beautiful gym and fly loft and a big pool. The kids were fun to get to know. The lunch was delicious and they have a lunchroom that holds 50 kids for a meal. We played basketball and the whispering game (aka telephone).
It was a long, long day with arriving the morning on the ferry but it was fun. We also got to learn how to do Japanese calligraphy and had a presentation from the students about their music and other traditional games.
Tomorrow we will go see dolphins.
So far, this trip is great.
Cheers
