News from Nagasaki

Just heard from Sylvia (was in Nagasaki last time) that we, the students, may have to share rooms (for a year ???) and that we need to buy all kinds of things (sheets, towels, chopsticks etc.) in those 100-yen shops in order to survive. Maybe an appartment in town is not a bad idea after all. Maybe Alexandra wants to share...should be fun.
First the University told us that they would pick us up at the airport 長崎空港 or at the trainstation　長崎駅 but now we have to make our own way. There are two Nagasaki Daigaku stations 1) Nagasaki Daigaku Byōin Mae 長崎大学病院前 (the hospital) and 2) Nagasaki Daigaku Mae 長崎大学前 so we have to make sure to get out at number 2....Guess what...a taxi will do the trick, I believe. Then ask the porter to direct me to the International Student Exchange Division 留学生科. For more info see http://www.cc.nagasaki-u.ac.jp/english/index.html
The last couple of weeks are going very rapidly indeed and I still don't know where to park the boat for the winter, Warmond or Loosdrecht. have to make up my mind quickly though other wise the weather becomes too bad and will be gone to good old Japan.
