At last I came to Finland where I had longing for a long time.
I was deeply impressed it's nature and wonderful landscape. There are so many forests and lakes and beautiful flowers.
Road is so wide and no traffic jam. Air is clean and fresh.
I enjoyed all,for example sauna, moomin-land, boat, walking,shopping,white -night,drive
cruising,Savonrinna Opera festival and sight-seeing etc. All is good and delight.
I was satisfied with Finland itself.
Opera program was Aida by Verdi at Savonrinna old castle. That is very wonderful and beautiful in the white night.
I met Moomin and other characters and Moomin valley. That was very pretty and
pleasant time. I love Moomin very much.
We visited Mr.& Mrs.Aaltonen's summer house,and stayed. I looked at border with
Russia.Their cottage near close to the border. It is the first time to see the border.
Unbelievable!! I met a friend of mine and Marianne in 36 years.
She is Gisela from Germany. I met her 36years ago at Atami in Japan.
Marianne called on her for us. That's great!
I met many Finnish people. They are very kindness and friendly.
And then I am very happy. Having many good friends is wonderful and international goodwill.
