On Friday our men had the good fortune to meet the architect Takamatsu Shin (see here). It's a long story, and one that they will write down once they return, but for now I will say that it was a rare and wonderful opportunity. They had planned to spend Friday back up in Tokyo, visiting some of the sites that they had missed during their first few days there, but when the opportunity to visit the headquarters of STAA presented itself, our men switched their plans, stayed in Kyoto on Friday, then took the Shinkansen to Tokyo on Saturday. They took the Shinkansen back to Kyoto Saturday evening, from where they will leave to return to Colorado on Sunday.

Our men will be sad to leave Japan. They have had a most excellent trip.
