Day 02 - Trip to Tsugaru

During orientation in morning, we learnt about the different religions in Japan. It seems that Japanese mix and match their beliefs to suit their own situation. For example, it would not be uncommon for someone in Japan to have a Shinto wedding to receive blessing and protection, while also having a Christian wedding and a Buddhist funeral.



In the tradition of previous Serve Asia Teams, we had our team photo at the front of the headquarters before catching a train to Tokyo. Next, we caught a bullet train to Hachinohe, before catching a train to Namioko. There, Martin Ghent, Micah Ghent and OMF Short Termer Louise met us at the train station to drive us to Tsugaru Chapel.

All up we travelled around 7hrs today...
