Surprising and wonderful news came today that three of the students who visited Ichiritsu last June are in Washington, D.C., tonight. Mike S., Aaron H., and Paul C. will attend the Inauguration tomorrow, along with 11 other Payton students and at least 2 Payton teachers. I hope that Payton's Japan Exchange students will write about their experiences for our blog after they return home.
I have to tell you that all of Chicago, myself included, is tremendously excited about President Obama. Many citizens, by bus, by train, and by car, have traveled to Washington to witness the ceremony. We're extremely proud and happy. Today the television and newspapers were filled with memorials to Dr. Martin Luther King, remarking on tomorrow's fulfillment of his hopes and dreams for equality in the U.S.
Tomorrow our principal, Mrs. Estrada, will arrange for news coverage of the Inauguration to be broadcast throughout the school. I don't know how we'll concentrate on schoolwork, but I'm glad she wants to do it. There will be tears of joy, I think, as we watch.
オバマ｛小浜｝大統領、おめでとう
