In the morning I did some studying for the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT), and in the afternoon I went to watch Masao and one of his employees, Katsuo, play badminton together. They taught be a little bit but I am 下手臭う(hetakusou, really bad at it)!

After some more study I met two old friends, Tetsuya and Erica, and we went to an izakaya (Japanese-style bar) to drink and eat. I found that Kirin makes a dark beer（キリン一番：黒生）that is actually pretty good (pictured above). It was great to see them again!
