25 Years Later...

When I was 16 years old, my family hosted a student from Japan when he stayed in Whittier, CA (where I grew up - did I really grow up???) for three weeks. Yosuke Kamiya and I have remained dear friends ever since, and I have been able to see him many times over the years in the U.S., but mostly when I visit Japan. He's now married and has two cute daughters, Yumi and Yuki, pictured herein.

Yuki is very very camera shy, and she keeps trying to hide every time I pull out the camera. I just so happened to get this one good picture (good timing!). You can also see her camera shyness in the video, below. And for anybody who ever wanted to hear me speak Japanese, you'll hear me in behind the camera. I sound like a dork!
