I want to thank you and your organisation for an enjoyable and highly informative guided tour of that Nakagin Capsule Building, last Thursday.
My interest in that construction goes back in time, even before it was constructed. The Metabolist approach to the new world order – now becoming a reality – conditioned my Architectural and Theoretical work from the 1960’s. So to enjoy the chance to enter and appreciate it was most important to me.http://kaguyareisebuero.com/plans/55

They are like a carpet of colorful flowers.
Japanese flowers are not just cherry blossoms.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government manages nine historic parks.
Hamarikyu Park is famous among them.
So there’s a lot of people.
I recommend another garden.
It is Rokugien.
Its history begins in the seventeenth century.
This was the garden of a powerful samurai.
Freddie Mercury of Queen, who is a famous Japan fan, loved this garden.
You can spend a quiet time here.
I saw a samurai event in Ota Ward, Tokyo.
Nitta Shrine is a shrine for samurai.
People are proud of it.
And they make a parade of samurai.

Their costumes are theirs.
Samurai are not only Japanese.
Foreign citizens are also samurai.

When I was working in Europe, I missed cherry blossoms of Japan.
Cherry blossoms can be seen everywhere in the Japan.

Unfortunately, the shop (HOW HOUSE) will be closed until next June.

I sometimes go to Shimoda.
Shimoda is about three hours and thirty minutes by train from Tokyo.
There is an old history.
In 1854, Matthew Calbraith Perry came to Shimoda.
He was an American admiral.
Until that time, Japan had been closed.
Currently, there are nine beaches in Shimoda.
I love this historic town.
