Dear Friends, 02-11-2014 I have sent you previously a couple of invitation to join me for a tour of Tohoku, Japan where people has been trying to recover from earthquake disaster in March 11,2011. This is an update to that invitation originally sent out in 2012. If you have been thinking of supporting Tohoku from abroad but having difficulty in identifying opportunity to do it, you could join our proposed tour to Tohoku, Japan. I am planning this tour to be in mid October of 2014 and later for a group of people. This tour is designed to support recovery of Tohoku by contributing small economic benefit to local economy by touring and a chance to participate in building a Japanese Garden to pray for the disaster. We will visit sites (disaster affected areas, historical gardens, world heritage sites and national park) and a meeting with local residents in learning and participating in a workshop on recovery through a Japanese garden building for a total of 15 days. This announcement is still a preliminary to explore any interest in this tour and based on response I receive, it will be modified and finalized. I am looking forward to receiving your interest and comment. Koichi Kobayashi, 2715 10 th west, Seattle, WA. 98119, USA Ph. 206-286 9644

Dear Friends,02-11-2014

I have sent you previously a couple of invitation to join me for a tour of Tohoku, Japan where people has been trying to recover from earthquake disaster in March 11,2011.

This is an update to that invitation originally sent out in 2012.

If you have been thinking of supporting Tohoku from abroad but having difficulty in identifying opportunity to do it, you could join our proposed tour to Tohoku, Japan.I am planning this tour to be in mid October of 2014 and later for a group of people.

This tour is designed to support recovery of Tohoku by contributing small economic benefit to local economy by touring and a chance to participate in building a Japanese Garden to pray for the disaster.

We will visit sites (disaster affected areas, historical gardens, world heritage sites and national park) and a meeting with local residents in learning and participating in a workshop on recovery through a Japanese garden building for a total of 15 days.

This announcement is still a preliminary to explore any interest in this tour and based on response I receive, it will be modified and finalized.

I am looking forward to receiving your interest and comment.
