Welcome Dinner

At a welcome dinner in Kanoya, the exchange students and families were entertained by various cultural acts.

Here is a performance with the traditional Japanese banjo.

Another type of traditional dance.

The man in the middle hosted one of the students.  He and his friends from his karate dojo completed several displays of their skill.  Not pictured are things like breaking bricks with their hands and heads.

The men finishing the show....

The family and I.
