Word of the day: bijutsukan (art museum)
Today, the Japanese Academy visited the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. Students were allowed to roam around the museum for most of the morning. After a few hours, all the students got into their companies toured the museum with the museum curators, visiting exhibits such as the Japanese and East Asian galleries. After the tour, we were able to enjoy some delicious Panera catering for lunch and then headed to Carytown.

Today we were able to
visit the shopping district in Richmond, called Carytown. We went there in particular to visit a
shop named Tokyo Market. The store featured various Japanese items such as food, drinks, candy chopsticks, dining
ware and much more. The students were excited to see many types of Japanese candy
and snacks.
