Gouji Ihara, Mihara Board of Education, and I at our sushi lunch: What a fun lunch! We had maki sushi (rolls), tempura (that still had the head attached), edamame, miso soup, apples cut in the shape of rabbits and some other things. There were 4 teachers at each table and various Japanese administrators/members of the B.O.E. This man, Gouji Ihara, was teaching me some Japanese words, mostly about sushi (meishi= rice, tamago= egg, shitake= mushroom, nori= seaweed, anago= a kind of fish). He was very funny. I gave him one of my business cards but he didn't have one of his to reciprocate so he gave me his name tag.
