Japan trip Photos

I have been having quite a bit of trouble posting lately, so I hope this message gets through.

I have edited a few photos for posting online. More will come in the future.

These trees are from the collection of Mr. Iwasaki, a multi-billionair who became rich from his involvement in the creation of Pachinko, a Japanese gambling game. Mr. Iwasaki was not able to be there himself, but his workers showered us with kindness. I was suprised to see that Pius Notter's son was apprenticing there.

Charles,
Wow, great looking photos, looks like you had a wonderful time. The pachinko reference made me remember a time when I was about 14, as one of my uncles had a home version of pachinko. Had alot of fun with it.
Beautiful trees, though, really nice.

Scott
