Cool letter! I have been asked some equally stupid questions by Japanese people...adults, not children.

My uncle Jonathan is in the States visiting from Germany. He met my grandmother's neighbor who, upon hearing he's been living in Germany for the last 20 years, asked, "Do they have farms in Germany?"
Jonathan said he thinks some people, when they hear you're from another country, feel they have to ask a question, and sometimes this is the best the brain can do on short notice.

Under what circumstances was this letter written? Why does Kenny address it to "Dear visitors"? Kenny must be in about fourth grade, if the handwriting is anything to go by.

Actually, the crayons question isn't so bad; I can't recall seeing any since I've been in Japan.

I'm not sure how the letter came to be since it was up before I got to Daito JHS, but I think it must've been that some students from Daito did an exchange visit to America (I think Indiana) and stopped in at an elementary school.

True, mostly markers and color pencils.
