September 10, 1942

My family and myself arrived in Minidoka 8:30 p.m., tired, hungry, many problems and worries -- didn't meet anybody yet. I still can feel the rocking of the train -- met a lot of old friends busboys now temporary cooks or assistant, Kiyoo Yamamoto, Hank Yamada, Ed Sasaki, Toshi Murakami. After dinner in mess 31, which I ate in a hurry, I went with Hank and Toshio to a dance sponsored by Portland. Old friends there. Tough time finding the way home -- no lights.
