Great Three Days With Australians at the House.

I had an email last year asking if twenty three Australian textile teachers could  come and study at my house.

I am not sure how I allowed myself to be convinced that it was possible to have that many people stay at the house but somehow the day arrived and so did they.

Strong willed and full of laughter and good will. We had great food, music, weather, baths, campfires, indigo sessions and Japanese textile discussions. A very special special time. Thank you ladies.

They should be boarding their plane now back to Australia.

Best to you all from Hiro and Bryan.

    Must have been a bit squeezy but I note the new Bbq. Glad you enjoyed it. What fun.

      Hey Judi,
      The pizza oven isn't in yet...or the roof...step by step.

    wow, that's what I call a full house! trying to imagine where everyone slept - or maybe they just worked straight through?

      Four in a bedroom. Futon rentals between the beds. Luckily we had good weather. Never ever enough time.

    As a member of this large group, we were amazed as to how we would fit in - but it just worked. The hospitality from Byran, Hiro and all his wonderful friends in the Fujino community was terrific. Priceless experience. Best food and lots of fun. Thank you so much. Sue
