Arriving

Well, I have officially arrived in Japan. Becky, Amy, Brad, and I all arrived within an hour of each other at the airport yesterday. The plane ride went pretty well, very long, but no major issues. Mark Blakely picked us up.
After we landed we all got in the church van (everything is on the opposite side here. the side of the road you drive on, where the doors are on the cars, where the driver sits, etc) and headed through Tokyo to drive straight through Tokyo to get to Noborito. It took us about 2 hours to drive from the airport to the Noborito church and Tim and Christine's house.
We all had dinner at Tim and Christine's and were joined by Tim, Christine, Abe Huber, Mark, his wife Yuiko, Mark's daughter Hana (pronouced the same way as my name), and Joe (another young man who works with PAZ). Yuiko made a golden curry chicken and rice dish that was absolutely delicious.
Mark took us girls to our apartment. It's actually bigger than I thought it would be. Hopefully within the week I'll have pictures up online for everyone to see. The apartment pretty much has two bedrooms a kitchen and a bathroom. And our bathroom is split up into three seperate rooms.
Well, today (Sunday) we all are going to lunch in just a little bit and then we're going to do some shopping for the apartment. I miss everyone at home. Thank you for the prayers!
