Your dad did it! he is the proud owner of a NEW JAPANESE DRIVER'S LICENSE. He was very careful to not cut any left turn corners too close so that he would not go over the curb. When he finished the test, the examiner had only one bit of correction to give him. He said, "You seem to be swinging a bit wide on the left turns. you might want to watch that." !!??!! Dad was quite amused. He definitely will not be swinging wide in real driving conditions. He may run over some curbs however:) The license is good until July 23, 2011.

Updates
As we get pictures from Elder and Sister Prisbrey we'll upload them, so don't forget to scroll down and see any new pictures since your last visit!
Our Apartment building
The Japanese characters by our apartment tell the name of the apartment building: Jyo-shi-dai-mae Sunshine. It means "Sunshine Apartments which are in front of the Women's University." We assume that the campus which is directly across the street to the east was once a women's university.
If you zoom out you can see the chuch building and parking lot. We are on the very north end of the west wing of the apartment building. When we look out of our windows at the end of our apartment, we can look down at the church parking lot.
If you zoom out three times, you can see our 7-11 in the bottom right corner, where we walk nearly every day. They have great salads and am pan (a sweet bean filled roll). Dad prefers to eat at 7-11 to eating at McDonalds!
We also have a McDonalds close by. $5.00 for a hamburger, but you can choose a shrimp burger if you want. The elders say it is quite good.

Time in Kumamoto
The Prisbrey"s
- Kandie & Keith
- Kumamoto, Fukuoka, Japan
- After 31 years of teaching at the University of Idaho, we felt it was time to retire so that we could fulfill a long time dream of missionary service. We felt we would be called to Japan, and we were delighted when the call actually came. We have been in Kumamoto city, Kumamoto state, Japan since Jan 12, 2008. Our five children, 1 daughter-in-law, 3 sons-in-law and 12 grandchildren help maintain this blog for us. We appreciate all of your support. This is an amazing experience.
