Sunday. The day of rest, and we sure felt like we needed it! It was a really fantastic day, as I guess you should be able to expect!
We went to church in the morning and made a lot of new friends there. We got invited to YSA FHE for lunch and Filipino FHE for dinner! We were so happy about it.
Anna made a new friend and she helped us get over to the Tokyo temple. She was a lot of fun. She spoke Japanese to us half the time and kept reassuring us that she would help us get to the right place.
We....had our doubts, but she ended up getting us there!
The Tokyo temple is very beautiful. It is right next to a big park and even though it doesn't really have temple grounds it has nice plants all around it.
YSA FHE was hosted by the Quinn family. They're totally great. Brother Quinn gave us a ton of advice about personal finances and offered us his contact info if we ever want to discuss some stuff with him. His wife was really nice too and she reminded me of the girl in the TV show Arrow that is kind of the brains behind the main superhero. She seemed really nice and really smart.
We met a lot of cool people and made some fun new friends.
After that we headed over to Filipino FHE at the Magalei's house. I can't believe I didn't get a photo with them!! Anyway, we played some fun games, had a nice lesson and we ate tons of great food. We also met a really cool guy named Marcus Otsuji. He and his wife both served in the same mission in Japan (at different times) and they've been living in Japan for over ten years! He works for Apple which I think it super cool.
What a great day. At the end of the night we passed by this cute little park on our way home.
Cute park. Could use some swing sets.
