Japan District Convention (continued)

I cannot express the sheer joy Susan and I experienced at the 2012 Japan District Convention, attended by 216 Pilots and Anchors. Every part of the event was well-prepared and impressive...

Above is a local group that danced to flute music during Opening Ceremonies.

2011-12 Japan Governor Kikue Uehara opens the convention. She is so gracious.

The "Anchor Song" written and recorded by Anchor Advisor Katsuya Suita of Tokyo, shown above (he is this year's 3rd Place Co-Anchor Advisor of the Year!), was performed by the 39 Anchors in attendance.

Our post-convention activities took us back to Tokyo, where we spent the afternoon and evening exploring  the exquisite National Theatre. After dinner at another excellent Japanese restaurant, where Susan and I cooked our own sukiyaki and shaba-shaba, we flew to Singapore...our next exciting destination!
