U-15 Fukagawa Italy Expedition Day 8

On the 8th day of the expedition, on Jan 21 (Sun), we went sightseeing in Venice.
I took the bus and train, feeling the differences from Japan as I headed to the city of water.



They were already able to experience various aspects of Italy, such as its cuisine, climate, culture, and scenery, at their accommodation. However, as soon as the players got off the train, they felt that Venice is a special place in Italy.
The players enjoyed the city of Venice while asking Mr. Paris, who is accompanying them, and doing some research about Venice.



We were given the mission to have pizza for lunch, divided into groups to find restaurants, calculate prices, and place orders. We communicated in various ways and were able to enjoy the long-awaited pizza.


While continuing to stroll through the streets of Venice, I encountered the players of Flamengo, who won this tournament. We celebrated their victory, interacted, and took a commemorative photo together.



After returning to the hotel and finishing dinner, we reflected on this trip and each person gave a speech.
We were able to share our frustrations, realizations, and determination for the future during this expedition.
Furthermore, I received messages from Paris and Noemi, who provided tremendous support, and I felt a renewed sense of gratitude.


We will leave the hotel at 6:00 tomorrow morning and head back to Japan. We will stay focused until the end and bring back many things to Tokyo.
