Trip to Tokyo...

We left the retreat chalet this morning for Tokyo... We had a light lunch at the Shinkansen station before we got on our train.

Jeff left us at one of the stops along the way so Nozomi, Zack and Ellie took us into Tokyo where we transferred to the JR subway...

That train took us to The Johnston's neighborhood where we stopped at Mister Donut - YUM!

After a snack we stopped by the kids school - Christian Academy Japan. We met lots of friends and teachers...
From there Nozomi led us to her favorite bakery (why do we seem to eat every hour or so?)

We stopped to pray over a temple... this was a very dark place... we prayed that those who stopped at the temple would come to know Christ as their savior...

Then on to The Johnston's home and neighborhood where we were able to go on a prayer walk to pray for her friends and neighbors... It was a very special time...

At the end of the night we went for a potsticker dinner before we boarded the subway back to Shinjuku and our hotel for the night...

Once we hit the street level the lights of downtown Tokyo were amazing!

We all got a good nights rest for our sightseeing adventure the next day!
