Friends


Over the course of three weeks, I made some friendships
that I know will last a lifetime.

The Girls

Jane, Valorie, Barb, and I were pretty much inseparable.  Here we are at the Sadako Memorial in Hiroshima.
Here we are in our ryokan (Japanese inn) yukatas (cotton kimonos or robes) getting ready to eat supper.
Here we are at the "goodbye 
banquet" in Tokyo.

The Guys


This is Bob at the ryokan just before he began his "stand-up comic" routine with the karaoke machine.
This is John thinking..."You want me to
eat this?"
This is Jim, slightly overdressed for the occasion.
This is Michael no doubt musing
philosophically over the days' events...
"So, so, so, so, so..."

The Gang


The gang's all here...except Bob who is manning
the camera!
