Jr High beginning of the year enkai.

Last call, kids...


Final, for reals, farewell speeches from the outgoing teachers...



And the new folks.

You have to love the Japan tradition of providing transport for all the drinkers.

The nijikai/2nd party...

...where you pour alcohol from a lava rock.

And the next AM's mandatory dose of grease and coffee. You know, to balance the system out.
