Days 0 and 1: P Collected by Yukako Owen
Aloha!
Greeting from Japanese track capstone group from Waikiki! First of all, Japanese track students and families truly appreciate ISP admin, capstone coordinators, Taka sensei and everyone who made this Capstone trip 2022 happen! Due to strict covid restrictions in Japan, it was unfortunate we could not go to Japan; however, Taka sensei’s 5th graders had been so excited for this trip, lots of laugh and smiles, we can not express enough our gratitude that we were able to start our trip. Here are some comments from 5th grader students on prior to the trip.
ハワイに行くのを考えるのはすごく楽しみ。ハワイに行ってしたいことは、海で泳いだり、ネイティブのハワイの動物をたり、火山を見たりすることです。どうしてかというと、私は、動物と泳ぐことが好きです。また、私は、アクティブな火山をみたことがないからです。
The thought of going to Hawaii is very exciting. When I get there, I want to see an active volcano, swim in the ocean and maybe see native animal to Hawaii. (By Eva)
僕は、第二次世界大戦時のパールハーバーアタックのこと日本の移民のことを学びたいです。それから、本物のウミガメをみて、ハワイの食べ物を食べることを楽しみにしています。
When I go to Hawaii, I want to learn about Japanese immigration and World war II Perl Harbor Attack. I also want to see wild see turtles and looking forward to eating Hawaiian food. (By Enzo)
僕たちは、ハワイに行きます。僕はこの旅行を楽しみにしています。僕は、ハワイの歴史をもっと習って、パールハーバーとスノーケルに行くのを楽しみにしています。日本に行けないのは、残念だけど、去年みたいにどこにも行けないよりもうれしいです。
I am going to Hawai. I am really excited for the trip. I want to learn more about Hawaii’s history, and I am excited to go to Perl Harbor and do snorkeling. It’s shame we could not goy to Japan, but unlike last year, at least we get to go somewhere. (Michael)
