Winter felt like five months - it was really cold for that long. Thankfully it was over. A very slow progression from cold weather to warmer temperatures eased in.

After Tokyo, I was back to work visiting only two schools instead of three. Hanao JHS was off my rotation. Tahara and Chiyo JHS are the two schools that I visit now.

Saturday, April 19th marked the grand opening of the Riverwalk, the city's latest shopping center. It is, by far, one of the weirdest looking things I have seen here.

As of this writing, I have about 12 weeks of classes remaining.
