25th and 26th June, "Research visit to Shimane town"


The view from our hotel room	Katsura island	Kate was very impressed

Stones! Possible material?	Sai no Kawara	picking up shells with the landscape architect Kamikado

It was just breathtakingly beautiful here. I felt almost at home, just like Karakuwa, my home town. Same landscape, same sea. Very kind and friendly people, too. We should find a summer house here. (HK)

Flew here straight after clearing my exhibition in Tokyo, then have to fly back to Tokyo tomorrow, and on to Edinburgh the next day. Although we came here for research meetings it has been a wonderful break from the hectic pace this summer. (KT)
