Our Weekend with Friends

This past weekend we had a great time with friends. On Friday, one of our JET friends came from her city to visit for the weekend. Her name is Melanie and we met her in Tokyo and have kept in touch since, but this was her first trip to Kure. So we went out to dinner on Friday and showed her around Kure. She really loved it and is planning on spending Christmas with us here. :)
On Saturday, Bernard came (our friend from Evanston who is a JET). And as usual Scott and Bernard wasted no time and got right to playing Madden football on Playstation. Melanie and I went shopping and got some tea at the local cafe. That night we went over to our friend, Austin's apartment for Curry dinner. One of our friends in Kure is from Canada, but she is Indian, so she made everyone home cooked Curry. It was wonderful and we had a great time.
Then Sunday, we relaxed and Melanie and Bernard went back. Scott and I went to Japanese lesson that night. We were really lucky to have been able to spend this past weekend with the friends we have made here!
