In October four years ago, I made a trip
to Hakone with Mimi.
We skipped the dinner of the inn because
she couldn't eat raw fish.
We ate out in a western retaurant nearby.
I had a hard time climbing
up the sloping lanes. She laughed at me and
said " It must be hard
for you with your short legs ".
Later we went to Kasai Rinkai Park and rode
the big wheel. The view
from the wheel was wonderful-beautiful
sea and shoreline. There
she was beautiful. However, all her memories
are now scattered here
and there. One sure thing I firmly envision is
her strong but lovable visage.
