Thank you for the nice comments about my blog., Erika and Craig. My younger son called me from Tokyo and said ," You should answer the comments quickly.!" I'm sorry I did not answer for a long time. One of the reasons is that I was on a trip to Switzerland about two weeks.
Our niece arranged everything for the trip and guided her parents (my husband's sister and her husband) and us (my husband and me). We stayed at a chalet in a small village at the foot of Mt. Jung Frau for a week. Everyday we went hiking or sightseeing with lunch we made. It was great holidays. We saw many people from other countries enjoying holidays in Sw
itzerland, too. I heard that the small village have far more people than its population in the season for skiing. They say the number of the tourists to Japan isn't increasing. I'm not intending to support tourism, but I hope more people, especially young people visit Japan and have time with us. Traveling and learning other cultures and ways of life will help people understand each other. It must work to make peace.
What is the difficulty in visiting Japan? What can we do? I can do nothing about flight ticket price or eyesore buildings, but I think most of us, Japanese, are kind enough to welcome and help tourists. I know many people, including my husband, who are ready to guide amd show our towns and life if wanted.
By the way, I am feeling desperate with our new cabinet, unintelligent and arrogant. Of course I didn't expect them to be good. We Japanese people are too pacient, or stupid, but things must be changing verry little by little, I think.
