Fukuzawa Yukichi (Captain Kimura's assistant/Translator)
City Hall, SF
March 22nd, 1860
All the Japanese that boarded the Kanrin Maru are to meet with the Americans at San Francisco City Hall today. I thought the building had a unique shape on the outside and a classy structure on the insde. This is the first official meet-and-greet we have with Americans in the government. As Captain Kimura's assistant, my responsibility is to translate for his conversations. I didn't understand every word they spoke, so I took a guess based on the content of their sentence. Overall, I can say today went through quite smoothly and our bond with the Americans surely gotten stronger.
