I went to dinner with Shigeko in the centre of Tokyo. It was like being in the middle of Bladerunner! – Raining too! (Anthea-you will have to ask someone).
It was as if we had known each other for years, and the time flew by. I have met some truly lovely people. The waitresses wore kimono, and Shikego took me to a traditional kimono shop. I wasn’t allowed to touch the fabrics, though, and my fingers were itching to!
Next exciting thing is the two-day workshop tomorrow. More trees! There is a museum in the grounds, and I really want to sneak off and look at the ceramics.
Hope snow in England was just a myth.

Hi Sue,
The photos are beautiful, looks like a really magical place. Mat and I are both so happy for you. Hope you like this quote:
“Magical places are always beautiful and deserve to be contemplated … Always stay on the bridge between the invisible and the visible. ” ~ Paulo Coelho
Lots of Love

Hi El,
Good to hear from you.
I love the quote, and am going to use it on the website, if that is ok.
I would love to catch up with you all when I get back, and hear how things are going with you.
Lots of love to all
