Lebaran in Japan (5th day)

My first time celebrating lebaran in Japan and outside my country! This morning we did 'ied prayer at Utsunomiya University's student meeting room. The room isn't big but we managed to gather inside. There were Indonesians, Japanese, Pakistani, Jordanians,... they are students, expatriates, and trainees, and some of them brought their children I've met some of the Indonesians on my first evening after I arrived in Japan 4 days ago and we met again today. It's pretty funny to hear people from different countries speak to each other in Japanese! hahaha...

After the prayer, we congratulated each other, forgave and asked forgiveness of each other. Then the guys set up some tables and we had the food and drinks ready and... eat! There are food from many cultures Then we got ready to go but not before having some chat and pictures taken.

We moved to Tuti and Arin's home and got ready for barbecue party. Konomi-san was also there. I learned that she's a member of an association of "Indonesia-lover" who cared most about Indonesians in Japan especially the students. The men prepared the barbecue, and the ladies prepared other food. The children played cheerfully and noisily. We left the house at bout 2:30 pm. When we live far away from home, our friends become our family, where we spend the happy day full of love and forgiveness together.
