Hi everyone!

Here are the handouts for starter and beginner class.

This week, I'll talk about a very popular sightseeing place in Canada.  This is Niagara Falls.  It's a 1 hour drive from my house.  I've been there more than 10 times.  Whenever relatives or friends come from abroad, we always take them to Niagara Falls.

The falls are very impressive.  You will probably say "Amazing!" when you first see them.

You can do many things at the falls.  Of course, you can watch the falls from the Canadian side or the American side.  Everyone says the Canadian side is better.   You can take a boat ride and go very near the falls.  You have to wear a raincoat, because everyone will get a little wet.  And finally, you can actually go behind the falls through some caves.

After you finish enjoying the falls, you can go to Niagara Casino by foot.  Unlike pachinkos, casinos have a positive image in Canada, because they are very clean and elegant.  Many people in casinos dress nicely and behave very politely.

Even though the Falls are a must-see, I think you will get tired of them after going there 10 times.  But, it's definitely worth going once.  Personally, I think they are a little overrated.

Can you introduce any great sightseeing places in Mainland Japan?  I've never been there, so I would like to know some nice sightseeing places.
