Real English Forty-Nine: hospitality

 So, we showed up at Mr. S's house for the party at on the 23rd at 12pm sharp.

Punctuality is important in Japan.

Mr. S's house is really cool!

He has a fireplace, a hammock, some goldfish, and many many toys!!

I really like it.

When we arrived there was quite a feast waiting for us!!

Homemade pizza cooked in the fireplace, pasta, rice balls, chicken, salad, beef...

We had a feast!

In Japan, you say H ・O・S・P・I・T・A・L・I・T・Y.

But in America, we say that is "southern hospitality."

I am from Philadelphia, so I was "Philadelphia hospitality."

If you ask any tourist in Japan, or any non-Japanese living in Japan, "What is the best thing about Japan?", the reply is always he same: "Japanese Hospitality is the best in the world!  The service is so good, so clean, amazing!
