Tottori, 2010.04.11

I don't get invited to a lot of weddings. In fact, today's was only the fourth I've attended when not a guest of someone who'd got the invite.

Today's couple was my long-time friend Jonathan and his lovely Manami-san. It was a full-on Japanese affair, replete with a visit to a shrine halfway up a mountain slope and then a well-orchestrated reception attended by parents (who sat at the furthest-flung tables) and friends. We were picked up at the hotel at around 10:00 and got home at 17:00 or so. What a fine day.

Congratulations Jon and Manami-san!!
