Will arrived yesterday!!! We ended up having okonomiyake (?), with Minae and then went home and set up camp. It was then present opening time. I found that 40% of Will's luggage actually consisted of presents from my family. I got soo many coool things! Thank you sooo much guys!!! The monkey is called Edward by the way.
Today we had to get up relatively early because I had a haircut appointment!!! We had to walk though because the spare bike got nicked!!! ARGHHH so upset! Also...seriously Japan...what is the deal with shutting down all banks and ATM's during bank holidays???? Will had to pay for my hair cut and various things...dear dear!
The Hairdressers was an interesting experience. It was quite a posh one..so it was my first time at a "proper" hairdressers. They were all sooo friendly. I was a little scared..and almost felt underdressed. Mikage had to then do the whole translating thing for me...which was a little difficult..but then we realised that the (VERY) cute hairdresser guy doing her hair actually understood and could translate along. So it ended up going ok! My hair doesn't look terrible or anything! yaaaay! We then went for lunch at the thai place and had the longest coffee session afterwards. Todays really been about getting Will to meet mostly the Numazu crew. We met up with Imo, Dave, Katy and Amy for dinner and then went off to SpeakEZ. I got presents from Minae and Mikage! I received japanese kanji learning books and a children's book! I also got mochi!!! So I can make it and try it myself! How awesome?? I then ended up teaching Mikage cheesy chat up lines. It was hilarious hearing them come from a japanese girl. I loved every minute of it. Will taught us both one which was "How do you like your eggs in the morning? Unferitilized." I then had to explain what unfertilized was though...which was a little awkward...try imitating sperm! In the end because 2 other japanese friends wanted to know I made a diagram with explanations....It was an interesting english lesson really!

Pretty sure the phrase is running through my mind rather than around it...
