Thursday 26th December 2002 (Index...)

13:48:30 In the restaurant in Hiroshima where Chie's friend Maki works. Technically though, by now it is where she used to work.

14:38:35 Chie with a very big beer glass.

14:40:09 Chie and her friend Maki, who was going to be leaving her job the following day as she was soon expecting a baby.

16:16:13 I think this is taken in Mister Donut, where I was messing about with my new tripod.

16:19:59 The other of Chie's two friends we met up with today, Mana, again in Mister Donut.

19:11:15 Me and Chie on a bus going back to the flat. I think I was still playing about with my new tripod...

19:12:55 ...and again...

19:28:34 In case you ever wanted to know what the inside of a Japanese bus looks like.

21:51:55 Back at home now. Chie's Dad has got the MZ1, so his camera looks very similar to mine.

21:53:49 I think I was just trying to demonstrate how many kozara (small plates) seem to be used in a Japanese meal.

22:45:53 The bottle of Okayama sake recommended to me by Hiroshi. This was very nice indeed!
