1. The shortest stairwell ever
2. This is Katayama Kyoudai! He's the best. We've been working with him quite a bit. He's an artist. I asked him to draw me a painting of a Japanese landscape that I could take home as both a reminder of him and of Japan. Instead, he just drew me! 2 year ago me would be rejoicing, but I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it. It's pretty sweet though. 
3. This is my main man, Elder Cannon! We were in the MTC together and I got to live with his older brother earlier in my mission. He just finished and was in Tokyo, and came to watch a session of conference with us with a mutual friend. He's the best. He helped me a lot, much more than he knows! 
4. We went to a pretty sweet festival thing. It was basically like a Japanese state fair. 
5. They had 100% BEFF American food at the festival
6. That same day was a holiday here in Japan, Sports Day. All the school kids had these big meets where they competed in different events. 
7. The temple today! I'm with Elder Atkinson, and the Elders on the left are the ones we live with. Elder Nitta is on the left and Elder Snyder on the right. Elder Nitta is also transfer one. He's from Alpine, Utah, and actually knows Greg. Elder Atkinson is from St. George. I've lived with Elder Snyder for 3 transfers now. He's the best!

Love you all, have a great week!
