30th Anniversary　Autumn Fellowship Trip
Organizing Committee Chair　青木　宏義

Warmly welcomed by Fellowship Committee Vice Chairs 葛城, 山口 and 平, a total of 27 people, including three new members, enjoyed autumn in Shuzenji.
After offering prayers for “members' safety” at Mishima Taisha Shrine, off we went to Asaba!
With a selection of champagnes and wines carefully chosen by Secretary 引地, superb cuisine and hospitality, and karaoke at the after-party, we greatly deepened our fellowship. Fortunately, 内川 did not leap out of the open-air bath to swim in the pond.
After enjoying the world's best breakfast, the next day we visited the Nirayama Reverberatory Furnace, a World Heritage site, and Japan's longest suspension bridge, the “Mishima Skywalk.” Having learned a great deal and deepened our fellowship, we returned to Shinjuku all smiles.
Our thanks also go to 小林 of JTB, a junior of President 半場, who arranged the trip.
