Golden Week 2007-Kyoto

Minnasan, sashiburi ne!! Gomenasai! Watashi wa tottemo isogashii desu...I know i haven't posted a blog, or returned emails for a long time! I was having some rough times, and then my hard drive decided to crash so I just got my computer back a little while ago equipped with a brand new hard drive so get ready to see some pictures!! Haha...I have a lot of time to make up for. I just returned to Iwaki last week, coming back from the most amazing week. On Sunday April 29th was the start of golden week, and I was off to meet Kevin, Brianne, and Christine in beautiful Kyoto! Ima shasshin wa hajimaru yo! (The pictures are going to start now!)
