Sailing in Yokohama
Over the last few years Benjamin has traveled to Tokyo on business and has done a superb job of establishing a strong network of colleagues and friends. One that satisfies both of those descriptions is Captain Kikuji Hayashi from our Customer Service group. He is part owner in a nice 22' sailing boat and needed some help cleaning and painting it for the 2010 season. Last week, we were dillydallying around taking pics and vids coming back from Matsumoto's flat and caused Hayashi san to miss his train, forcing him to sleep in a capsule hotel as the last train left Tokyo station. We did not hesitate to help out down at Yokohama Bay for two days, Sunday and Monday.
Monday we had off, because of the Spring equinox national holiday, but even so, Yann was scheduled to give some French lessons to different friends across Tokyo leaving an extra spot in the sailing boat. Benjamin and I invited Leona from Hong Kong to join us. It about 75 min by two trains to get to Yokohama Bay Marina from central Tokyo. We had a great time with very nice weather and even better company. What a great way to issue in the new season, Spring!
