First day in Hiroshima
On the way from Tokyo (Haneda) to Hiroshima, saw Mt Fuji from the plane. Surprised us all when we had Japanese ready for greetings and were met by three English speaking hosts.
After checking into the Hotel, we attended a welcome dinner with Rotary Members of the Hiroshima West Rotary Club and District Governor Suwa. Gave our first impromptu presentation in Japanese. At dinner, Steven was seated next to a colorectal surgeon (translated as "Large Intestine and Anal Surgeon") who unfortunately spoke no English. A conversation about haemorrhoids ensued in sign-language.
