Time in Japan

I'm in Okazaki

I got to Okazaki at around 8:15 am. The night bus was uneventful, except that the bus was waiting across and down the street from where another woman and I were expecting it.

I'm staying at the Yamamoto House dormitory. It's very nice, and closer to the school and train station than the dorm I stayed in the other times I was here.
My room has a fridge with freezer (the white and yellow thing in the pic). The fridge is bigger and nicer
than the one I have in my apartment! And there is a TV. I'll just leave it on when I'm here for listening practice.

The drapes are closed because the sun would beat in otherwise. There are a lot of noisy birds outside. It's hot here, but not as muggy as Tochigi.

Since I was here last, there is a new grocery store between here and the school, and a new shopping area with movie theaters by the Student Village, where I stayed before.

greetings!
Your new place looks fine.

What is the beer index today? Can you buy ice cream treats there, or a comparable icee treat, now that you have a freezer to stock up?

When do classes start? What is your school schedule? Hope you do well.
