| In 1980, my friend Akemi and I decided to take a trip to US to visit our friend Hisa whom we knew from Honshu Paper company. He had left Japan in 1972 to immigrate to US. He had settled in Berkeley at that time. Akemi flew from Japan, I from Libya via France to meet in Seattle and then to take a Greyhound bus down to Berkeley. | |||

I flew to Boston to see my friend Har and visited the Area.

On the way down to Berkeley, we stopped by at Eugene to see my friends Jenny and Don. They told us it would be cheaper to fly to Oakland than to take the bus. They booked us tickets and we got refund from Greyhound.
