November Travels -- Part 1

At the beginning of November Joel and I went to the Church Planting Institute's national conference. Since we were already going to be traveling we decided to make the most out of the trip and make a couple stops along the way there and along the way back. Gaku came with us for the first couple of days, so the three of us could visit our friend, Yoshinori -- then Gaku went back to Sendai by train and Joel and I went to the conference.

My first glimpse of Mt. Fuji -- from the parking lot of Yoshinori's apartment building

Absolutely delicious lunch with Yoshinori
