| The Fellows arrived in Washington DC in the
afternoon and participated in an orientation at the Capital
Children's Museum from 4:30 p.m. - 6:30 p.m. During the orientation,
the Fellows received lectures on the KKC Fellowship program
and Japanese cultural considerations and etiquette by Japan
specialists. The Fellows also took a guided tour of the "Japan:
Throught the Eyes of a Child" exhibit at the museum where they
could get hands-on experience with the Japanese-style rooms,
a school classroom, and the bullet train sheets. |
| |
| After the orientation at the museum, the Fellows
went to a Japanese restaurant where they tasted some Japanese
food (for the first time for some Fellows) and discussed about
the food culture and table manners. |
| |
| Despite the hot, humid weather in Washington,
the Fellows seemed to enjoy walking and taking subways to the
museum and the restaurant. |
