What a great day had by all!  After an exhausting first day of visiting historical Kyoto, the second day started off by attending a sumo wrestling match in Osaka followed by a trip to the aquarium.  The students have been great ambassadors for TIS. Everyone is getting along and having a great time.  Students are positive and extremely cooperative. 

The hotel at Universal Studios is a big hit!  Everyone loves the Woody the Woodpecker theme rooms.  We have a big day ahead of us tomorrow at Universal Studios which is a minute walk from our hotel.  The hotel is situated in a small outdoor mall area where students like to explore.

We are pleased to report that all of the students are safe and sound.  There have been no injuries and no one has gotten lost.  They do a great job of sticking together, following directions and showing up on time.  Japan is an extremely safe and clean country and we feel extremely confident about the safety and well being of the students. 

A word of warning… be prepared for the return of very tired kids on Friday!  :0)
