And so the 'curtain falls'on the (first)chapter of my life in Hamamatsu. Who would have guessed in July 1999 I would still be here 11 years later. A place that has given me more than I could ever have asked for. Honestly,I wish my parents-in-law would have come to 'see us off'. But,that was their decision to make. I leave with only great memories,the'light of my life',lots of point cards (he he)and a feeling of 'until we meet again'..
