In the morning we visited Shimizu Park, another example of Mishima’s beautiful and peaceful water landscape.
Craig decided to experience the wading pool and a Rotary President was kind enough to dry his feet with a hanky afterwards
Then our team was separated and posted at different locations around the city to collect funds for Rotary International’s fight against Polio.
In the afternoon we took a bus to Lake Ashinoko for a Pirates of the Caribbeanesque cruise.
Nearby was the Venetian Glass Museum with grounds styled after Venice, complete with waterways, cafes and gardens. The museum was filled with delicate lace and glass dating from the 15th century, as well as modern art by Dale Chihuly.

Windy, I think you could start a new fashion in Northern California if you were to bring back a few pair of those knee socks, especially for those that wear kilts!
