Reunion with Dawn and Xavier
22, 22 July, 2017
Hot Japan… welcomes two friends of mine from US today.
I had no plan until the dinner with them today.
Thus, spending time for nothing until then.
During the time that I did nothing, G-Shock was perfect telling me time…
Then, I switched it to Royal Oak since I had to show up to the ANA Intercontinental Tokyo - one of luxury hotel in Akasaka.
Yeah, exciting to see friends whom I hadn't seen for a long time.
Dawn and Xavier - they are my colleagues in old time when I was working in Atlanta.
Dawn was a great friend of mine… we played softball together for many years.
She even wrote a recommendation letter for Thunderbird MBA entrance. I owe her a lot!
Xavier - this is 1st time in 20 years? Dawn comes to Japan with him for business. Nice occasion for catch-up.
In fact, more than them… business related people joined the dinner.
Actually, I am the one additionally joined the business occasion… to be precise.
At least, I still spoke English a lot even though I worried a little bit about it since didn't speak English too much for a while. Hahaha. Nothing to worry about that.

It was Kirk Mizukoshi. Kirk and I have been friends since time in Atlanta, USA.
We used to work in the same industry and had lots in common.
Played softball together and had lots of drinks together.
Since he married and became father of a sweet pretty daughter, didn't have chance to see each other.
Finally, we made a good reunion!
Went to 2 different places for food and drink. Turning out to be a long night! Hahaha.
Kirk knows the area very well and knows good places!
Thanks to him, we came to decent foods tonight.
Talk was surely endless and we promised that we had to do this more often.

His wife also knows this. Very interesting.
