REFLECTIONS

"Yesterday we went to the Tea Ceremony. We went into a Temple that had very cold floors. When we got into the room where they performed the Tea Ceremony, we had to sit on our knees which was very uncomfortable. We then said "osaki ni " when the tea was given to us. The tea was very strong and bitter. We also went to the firestation. The Japanese firefighters are in much better shape than ours. They were fast when they were training. The firefighters were very disciplined. " ~Sean Juarez
