Hi everyone,

I have been in Nagoya for exactly one week and so far, I love it!
Coming out of the station after taking a train from the airport, we were greeted by a giant mechanical crab, which waved its claws happily in our direction. Briefly imagined a world where crabs were top of the food pile and people were on the menu. Not nice. The weather here is brutally hot, but at least it's not raining. The flat is very spacious and although there isn't a friendly household robot that does all the jobs, Nilesh (my flat-mate) makes a good alternative. Missed church on Sunday due to a fever, so I am looking forward to meeting everyone properly this weekend. After this, I visit my Board of Education and schools on Monday and start work properly on Friday. As for the cake, it was delicious! I hope you are all well.

P.S. I will be online and on Skype on Saturday between 10:30am and midday, UK time. Would love to hear from you if you are not busy. take care.
