Ôhori koen.

I must give thanks to all Japanese friends who were some parts of this trip with me, some of them so old friendship as we meet on my first visits in 1989 and 1991, others more recently, some since this last trip.

Now I remember the Okinawa saying :

"ichariba-chode"  -Okinawa tamashï-

"Once we have met, we are like brothers and

 sisters"

Nice to hear it in our short Life.
