A Remembrance Wish for Peace
We discovered a difference between war memorials in Japan and those in western nations. While we remember, try not to forget and remember our glorious dead, the Japanese focus on world peace.
It’s a lesson from which we all can learn.
Favorite Workout on the Planet
It’s vigorous. But well worth the effort.
You get excellent exercise as you climb your way the top. The views are spectacular. The gondola takes you back down the mountain. And there’s a special treat waiting for you when you get there.
Kenmare High School Rocks!
On a trip back from western Canada, I stopped to stretch my legs and learned why Kenmare High School in North Dakota rocks!
A Shout Out to the World Cup of Rugby
To honour the Rugby World Cup being held in Japan, I thought I’d show a few pictures from Beppu, which is on the most southern main island of Kyushu. Beppu is near Oita, which is one of the locations at which games will be played.
Enjoy!
