Hello everyone back at home! Today was the last day of FMTC. Early in the morning, several people got up before dawn to take a sunrise walk to the beach because the sunrise is supposed to be beautiful. The four of us were a bit lazier and got up to see the sunrise from a platform at camp and crawled back into bed instead.
After breakfast and clean-up, we had our last session. We sang songs and two of the campers gave their testimony. We were all so happy for Moe because she shared about how she accepted Christ during camp!
We took the four and a half hour boat ride back to Tokyo. The ship was huge and had many levels, so after a tearful goodbye to the staff at Oshima (complete with depressing music blasting from the boat’s speakers) we put our bags away and began to explore each deck.
We even played Sardines and had tons of fun with the teens and staff. After that eventful game (the ship had many excellent hiding spots), we sat around for the last hour enjoying each other’s company until we arrived.

The trip home was exhausting and sad as the number in our company decreased as everyone began to go their separate ways home. Once we got back to Sakura-Gaoka, our respective homestays came to pick us up. Emi and I stayed with the Ikutas, who happened to have two dogs. Apparently all our homestays fed us extremely well, and we all slept gorgeously.
