Nippon is a lady of many faces: Nippon, with her bustling cities and her peace- ful gardens, Nippon, with her busy harbors and her feudal castles, Nippon, with her patchwork-quilt fields and her leafy forests, Nippon, with her smiling, un- assuming, and industrious people, and yes, Nippon, too, with her cherry blossoms and her majestic Fuijisan. As we lived and traveled on her tiny islands, we saw her wear each of these faces. Nippon is, at the same time, a vibrant young girl and a proud old woman. She protects the memories of her past lovingly, yet she responds energetically to the challenges of the 20th century. We ate her rice, her raw fish, her soy bean candy, and her seaweed. We slept on the mat floors of her tiny homes. We wore her kimonos and clattered along her narrow streets in her wooden getas. We scrubbed and relaxed in her community baths. We vis- ited her schools and taught English to her earnest and conscientious students. We were introduced to her custom of gentlemen first. We sang and danced her folk music and participated in her traditional tea ceremony. We visited her busy factories and shopped in her modern department stores. We tried out our not-quite Japanese at the Rotary Club luncheons. We were moved by her tragic monument to world peace-Hiroshima. And we talked, laughed, and, as we bid sayonara, we cried, with her friendly people.
