Japanese Language & Culture Lesson 3 - January 9, 2023

 


HAPPY MONDAY! 


It was great to see everyone for another lesson this evening! Michael was very insightful and we were able to take a glance at some of our tour destinations in tonight's lesson. 

I've linked Michael's presentation from this evening's class below as well as a version with his speaker notes. He talked about so many things this evening with multiple recommendations for some of the cities that we will be visiting next summer. I can't believe that it is now truly only a year and a half away! Just 548 days left!


I think I am finally working out the kinks and nuances of the virtual option for our travelers who cannot attend the classes in person. I'm hoping to perfect our experience before our last class this year! 🤣

View the recording of today's class below. 



It was great timing that Michael had discussed transportation in tonight's class as well. After finally re-opening its borders to the rest of the world and the decrease in COVID cases around the world, tourism is not quite at the same level as it used to be. Things are slowly going back to normal but there are still some restrictions on travel within the country itself. 

Below is a quick video of some of the changes to travel on the Shinkansen and other travel rules post-COVID. 


Mark your calendars for our next three sessions! 

All classes are held at the William Byrd High School library on the second Monday of every month at 5:00 pm until April 2023: 
  • Monday, February 13, 2023 
  • Monday, March 13, 2023 
  • Monday, April 10, 2023
We will send out an email to travelers and post to our pages if there are any changes to the above dates as we are now entering the months when we typically have snow/ice days.

Send us a message if you have any questions!
