Good morning from the Intelligent Hotel in Hiroshima City.  It is about (1:12am) and it is snowing outside. The heater was up so high that I could not sleep.

It is just a little over one hour into the last day of the year and I cannot believe how fast this year went by. This was a really great year for me! I had a lot of incredible experiences and I have grown a lot as a person this past year.
