936 _19Sep05-nh19_1431_nn At Suiden Terrasu we found this browsing library of over 1000 books. And these were not left-behinds or garage-sale acquisitons. This was an extraordinary collection curated by an exceptional sensibility. I wish I could meet the curator. I tried to identify him/her from the website. I browsed all for which I had time, listed ISBN numbers, and later acquired 12. Good thing my stay was short.
937 _19Sep05-nh19_1507_nn This comfortable and elegant place was a welcome rest after the rigors of Dewa Sansan. A delight to spend a night in relative luxury - not falling into streams.

Nihon August-Sept 2019
939 _19Sep05-nh19_1600_bw
An extraorindary collection of jellyfish, better than any in the U.S. And a wonderful acquarium. Another interval during which, by Noriko's over-booking of activities and by panic regarding Kay, we had to run thorugh this. I remember only that it was fantastic.
