Our adventure continues:
22. April - Friday:
The best part of going, so many Rotary clubs is traveling around the prefecture (like our "State") and see so much from place to place - and today we are going - Anthony, Harry and I with Kenji in his Land Rover - a Buzen, Fukuoka West Rotary Club - which is an hour of door and is about 1 (if the island is a clock) onCosta. We are in the vast beautiful country, as we drive there - lakes and mountains, and I thought that Japan would be solicited. But Japanese think that America seems to LA - and I suspect that before this trip, I thought it was like in Tokyo, Japan (Harry has said that too). Buzen, Fukuoka The club reminds me of the old Japanese landscape, and we need a great tradition (but Spicer), rice and curry lunch (yumm - say). I have spoken - and show the questions that peopleAre you curious about women in Rotary - someone asked what to do with our decision of the Supreme Court, women in Rotary.
It was very close to Tsuiki Japan Air Self Defense Force Base - and Antonio was very excited to be a privilege, what we saw there. We stepped in the Base (the ghost of the Japanese air raid think) - and received a briefing on the history of the base (ie, was taken by the United States for a period of time and then even the Japanese) and types of operations andTypes of aircraft that were at the base. We went outside on the tarmac, where they had pulled three fighters for us to see - an F-1, F-2 and F-16 (first time I had ever seen a fighter plane in the vicinity and was interested to hear that Japanese and Americans together the most technologically advanced aircraft). A pilot for each of these plans has been very nice to explain to us his plane and his ability - one driver said he had a wife and two children, and planhis "girlfriend" - it was funny to hear him tell this. Antonio was surprised that the F-16 could pull 9 g's - sounded like a wild ride to me. The pilots were young and thin - because Antonio said that helped them to withstand the g-force - and that they wore special suits to keep the pilots' blood pumping while they were soaring in the sky. We were invited to the top of the control tower (apparently a rare opportunity) and we could see out over the whole base - including lots of the three types aircraft, which we introduced earlier. There were a series of layers - like a movie where, if they were all ready to take off. I liked the expansive lushes coast and the mountains, we could see - and I hope that these planes will never be used. We stopped at the PX - and then said goodbye to our guests like that. Kenji from a bar-b-que for us later at his home in the evening (Japanese style - and I mean everything is sliced very thin) - and invited FunFriends - and I hated it at the end lacks the fun in the night, but went to bed early.
23. April - Saturday:
Hooray - now we are going to Yufuin - I read on this knowledge come from before going to Japan and I am delighted that our hosts contain this "distance" - is the lake-Tahoe Wonderul-spot "as we would like to enjoy in California -- It is surprising that a visit here, I think we are at the same time, they are so different and so equal "in what we like and what we do. It turnsthat the people we met several seconds in many Rotary clubs (usually larger) homes in Yufuin. We sold the house Kenji - and Tanaka, because they have a house there. It feels like forever in my SUV and called for a withdrawal Tahoe - only it is the famous hot springs in Japan.
But first - we stop at the wine shop - Kenji is a certified instructor of wine, we learn - and it would serve the wines of California for the party tonight(many parties with our guests) - and he says, ask him not to serve first, whether in America (who loves the wines of California is much better) - has beaten happy. Opus One and Ridge are the favorites for him - and leave the store with wine, chocolate, champagne - and go away, because the other team members are waiting for us on the road. Yufuin Buzen, Fukuoka is over, along the coast and then a steady rise in quality in the mountains. There are big mountains here - and three hours later, whenThe island is a clock - we are a 3 on the dial. We reached the crest of the hill and overlooks the beautiful city Yufuin - where everyone wants to come, says Kenji. E 'bigger than I thought - and so we continue on the main road - is Caramel / Aspen from Japan - some stores' entertainment that you would die with Japanese artifacts. Kenji is a popular place for lunch in the eye - the restaurant, Sadonoya - and the rest of the team there. We sit at a long table on the floor- And get hot coal pots for us, the fried chicken and sprouts - Blackberry with the wine that is produced in Yufuin (and beer). I offered to America that "buys lunch" - but the five guests GSE did not want to - I spent $ 100 so far for this trip. It 'a good feeling with Yufuin - a step back and relaxed - very Japanese - Japanese see the shapes in the trees and flowers, so characteristic of Japanese art. A great here. We walk through the market closelyEnjoy the streets, surrounded by beautiful mountains, and stop at Nurukawa Hot Springs for an afternoon - the hot springs are all different and that is a small, where you can spend the night if you are visiting. I'm happy because Teiko and Hiroshi joined us too.
Kenji is the house on the hill - and it's a beautiful house in the mountains, like the one we know. It is a white box, stone, with a porch on the front - and if you step out onto the porch, there is a magnificent view of the mountain range. TheThe girls are here to stay - and the boys down in a house. Kenji has dinner reservations at 6 in the not-easy-to-get-in restaurant in the city of Kame-no-i, and is beautiful in a back room in a garden, with about twenty of us. Hyoguchi Mika (Mika) - Grading, Finishing School owners, Ryoichi Hanechi - classification, insurance, Masayuki Sugino - Senior Living Management, Volume Kondou - Real Estate and baked goods - and Takayuki Fujimoto, architect - GSE Inbound Committee are allthere. The conversation is lively - dinner is very Japanese, with dishes that do not know (including a small fish) - and I am surprised that the champagne, beer, red wine, white wine - all served the same dinner.
Even in this case - one might think that the night here - but more came. Seiho Ryu us for dinner - a father, "Kenji - and he's a very famous artist in Japan - try $ 100,000 for one of his paintings - and the wonderful work. We went to his house - and hewritten a book on his paintings for us all - and to visit his home was a pleasure all to themselves. He entered the house (took the shoes, of course) and a great room (kitchen and living room) with a large, heavy tables and benches filled by a Japanese side and his studio, on the other - but across the entire back of the house windows overlooking a start you have given views of the city scape of mountains high, leaves the side of the mountain - and delicate bamboo trees onfar left - as if you were sitting on the flight. E 'was easy to understand, has been postponed because Mr. Dou, to paint - I would - with the magnificence of this majestic place on earth. He is known for his portrayal of the delicate cherry blossoms and the trees known - in color and race, the Japanese said. I wish I had some of his works - only a small cost of $ 10,000. We went downstairs, where three of his large paintings hang if - an intense cherry blossoms, one of the viewFrom his point of view, living room (this was the $ 100,000 in one), and one of MT. Fuji - all with a radical paint and gold leaf. Kimiyoshi, friend Kenji, played the piano for us as we handle all types of songs and we sang. E 'state 1, before we headed home, bowed several times, and I thank Mr. Ryu.
