As agreed many months ago – Aya flew in from Bangkok and joined us for a week. Aya is Japanese and works as a Development Expert for the ILO and lives in Thailand. She will travel with us – a great opportunity for Frederic in particular to practice his Japanese – and get answers to the many language questions which I cannot help him with.
Aya also introduced us to her brother, Daisuke, who is a helicopter pilot for the Japanese Coast
Guard - and he and Frederic spent some time together. The picture shows Daisuke at work - and no - we are not in the picture :-)

Aya came at 10 am to the 90 year old Ryokan where we had spent the night – we immediately went to pick up our rental car and headed south to the active volcano: Sakurajima.
