Food and Parties

One Sunday there was a peace rally (you can see a picture of that in the Around Akita Photo Album). Afterward, we went to a local coffee shop for coffee and dessert. We spent so much time sitting there talking that it was dinner time and decided to have a party at our apartment. We went to the local grocery store and picked up a bunch of different take out dishes and came back to our apartment for dinner. That's now the second time we've entertained here. Compared to how often we entertain in Minnesota, that is nothing. From right to left: Makoto, Ryoko, Hiromi, Jan, Atsuko
