Us Group A's partying with the Group B's at a neat pub.	Beer is Jamie's mommy. (Is it wrong to make esoteric references to 15-year-old MTV sketch comedy shows?)	Kim sings us him famous song "Black Box of Fucking Squirrels."
A dramatic pause, likely involving illegal acts with wildlife.	My sassy friends Gabe and Bex.	Irish Dave and Kelly try to blend in with the Japanese picture-taking population.
Tyler (Durden), Tiffany, and Irish Dave are clearly not as worried as I am about missing the last train.	My neighbor-ish Kevin. And, yes, my shirt does say California, and, yes, I did buy it in Japan. Why do you ask?	Missing the train, and taking the taxi to the 24-hour McDonald's. Unfortunately...
The 24-hour McDonald's is only open to drive-thru traffic. This is Dave asking politely for the famed Shrimp Burger.	I clearly find awkward situations hilarious.	But sometimes, I felt need to blend in so Seth wouldn't be the only one not feeling like a cultural ambassador.
This nice man really helped us out, and didn't even ask us why we didn't have a car. Or maybe he did. God knows what he said.	The next Monday was time for our Prefectural Orientation.	A chance to see a little of the country.
My rockstar friends enjoying some sushi.	Our leaders, praying we don't make any cultural faux pas, such as eating with our shoes on.	Some more snazzy dressers.
Boy, there are a lot of us, huh?	My table. Can you find me? I'm trying not to vomit directly on my tenticle sushi.	A view of the Kofu basin.
A really neat fruit park.	Cartoon apples are very happy to be in our prefecture.	A crowd watching Dave play some fruit-related game.
My friends abandoned me in the greenhouse, so I took the opportunity to snap a MySpace-angled picture.	A neat fountain and a train for kids. Or me.	Kelly shows us why we shouldn't mess with her.
The greenhouse? Maybe? Or Epcot Center.	A fisherman, likely catching those weird fish I keep seeing in the supermarket.	I'd really like to come back here and read or write in my journal.
I'll bet most people just thought this was beautiful, but I thought it looked like a level in Tekken, and I was prepared to fight to the death.	Jake checks out the slightly exaggerated topographic map, as our guide helpfully tells us things we don't understand.	We are really, really tired of standing.
Time for karaoke! Again!	Natalie and Clint show us how the bridge of "Bohemian Rhapsody" should be done.	My friends are blending in well with Japanese society.
You know it's a party when someone's got a tie on their head. Does anyone have a lampshade on their head? Or a book of cliches?	We made the newspaper! (Not pictured: Lauren, sitting in one row up :( )	Kuan teaching some Tai chi chuan. Or should I say, Tai chi KUAN? Right, guys?
I try my hand at calligraphy.	This woman patiently shows us how it's done.	They put newspapers down because foreigners with ink should be trusted at the level of kindergarteners.
I suck at kanji, so I just spent my time writing my family's names. (I think that's my dad's name)	This might say Japan and Kitty. Or it could say "You are a moron."	A neat sunset ends the long orientation.
