Writing a letter to the family friends that took care of me for part of my stay in Japan. I am writing them a card but thought I'd run it by ATOT first (just for kicks). Feel free to add comments. I can't add too much though, I have to fit it on a card before I meet with them tomorrow.

"Dear [family friends],
Words cannot express the generosity and care you both have shown towards [my gf], my family and myself during the last few weeks. I have truly cherished my time here in Japan, much of which is thanks to the effort you both have put forth. I deeply appreciated and enjoyed the trip to Kusatsu as well as all the lovely things along the way. Rest assured that this trip will never be forgotten as long as I live. The greatest of my expectations fell well short of what I experienced during my time here.

It was a pleasure and an honor to meet both of you during my stay. I truly want to thank you both on behalf of [my gf], my family and myself. Again, thank you so very much."



Does it sound good enough? Thanks!
 
Words cannot express my gratitude of the generosity and care you both have shown towards [my gf], my family and myself during the last few weeks.

The greatest of my expectations were far surpassed by what I experienced during my time here.
 
You could use "my gratitude for". I don't think "gratitude of" sounds right.

Are you writing this in Japanese? :Q
 
I think my gratitude of sounds fine. Then again, if you are writing this in English and they're only poor or broken English speakers that might be a bit tough for them.
 
let me correct you:

He spent thousands of dollars on me and my family. We had to struggle to buy him an ice cream cone. So it's thick alright!
