Lost in translation

So recently, a bunch of my students took a trip to Denver. Much to my surprise (ok, not really) everyone had a great time and came back all glowy. Here's some pics I got from Ishibashi-sensei, one of the lucky(?) teachers who escorted them.


My students, on their way to Denver.


Left to right: Momoko, Lisa, Maria. Aren't they cute? FYI: Lisa and Maria are also Japanese names. What a coincidence... These are three of my favorite students right here. They volunteer in class, do their homework, have a solid grasp of material, and are all around cool kids. In short, they're teachers' pets. All three had a great time and were bursting to talk about their experiences. Momoko, in particular, was cute when she explained how much fun it was after she realized boys would do whatever she wanted. She's, uh, very eager to spend more time with American boys.


Asleep in Denver. Aww... I feel ashamed I can't name them with 100% certainty, but honestly, it's hard enough to tell them apart when I can see their faces.


Left to right: Yuriko, Fumie, Misa.

I got a ton more pictures, but unless you know the kids, I don't imagine it's too interesting to look at a whole roll of this stuff.
