Saturday - transfer back to Hiroshima City


Checked back into the ANA Crowne Plaza Hotel in Hiroshima City. First up, we prepared a new presentation and slide show for the District Conference the following day.

We were taken to a tea ceremony at a tea ceremony school with all the Rotarian Assistant Governors wives - about 30 of us in total including a tour of the traditional Japanese style house - all in Japanese.

Then back to the hotel and to the convention centre to rehearse our presentation, which included last minutes changes to the slide show and ironing out any problems.

A lovely casual dinner followed at Hiro Suwa's family style restuarant with Hiro and Tanaka-san - the Japanese GSE Co-ordinator.

Tanaka-san was kind enough to help us with our Japanese presentation and pronunciation until about mid-night that night in the Rotary Office.
