Mizu & Toki's wild ride

I haven't known Mutsumi's parents to be as active as the they were during our nearly three weeks in the US. We're glad we had the chance to help them get out and about and many of our memories of Hilton Head and Atlanta center around them.

Like the day we went to the Botanical Gardens. Mutsumi was pushing Tokiko in a wheelchair along a garden path when mom decided she needed a better vantage point for taking a photo - and we all wondered, does she really need a wheelchair?


Then there was the day in Hilton Head when my uncle Tom showed Mizuho how he could help Tokiko's sore back.



Or the day in Atlanta when Mizuho inisted on helping clean the house, resulting in one of the most memorable photos of our trip.
