The first week I spent with 6 other students, we went early and decided to explore on our own a little bit before the program started. We started in Osaka and spent two days exploring the big city. Then we moved to Nara where we spent three days exploring more historical type places including a ninja village! Then we went to Kyoto where we relaxed a little bit before we started the program there. So for some pictures because those are always the best part!
Osaka
We went to the huge aquarium because they have whale sharks...
We rode the Largest Ferris in the World (Me and my friend Jordi)
