Sayonara

Last week we packed our 360 boxes over a period of four days. It was hard physical work during the day and by night there barely a pause in the celebration of laughter and tears as we bid many friends goodbye.

On reflections of leaving Kobe, Japan we quote: Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees once said“Leaving Australia was the hardest thing I have ever done”

Anna and myself shamelessly have plagiarized him and say:“Leaving Kobe will be one of the hardest things we have ever done “

This is due 100% to the great friends we have made over the last four years. We have indeed been blessed with making some really good friends that we want to keep.

As Aristotle said:
“Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow ripening fruit”
