The Riverlites arrived in Kobe at 0600hr and went to the Earthquake Museum where they learnt about the 1995 Kobe Earthquake. They also learnt about what to do during an earthquake.
They then went to the Kodomo Kai which is the Children Association of the Hyogo Prefecture where the volunteers there assisted the Riverlites in making their own handicraft.
Then, the Riverlites finally meet their host family in Awaji Island in the evening.
