Sept. 11. 1975 Breathmobile in Heppner On July 25. 178 4-H students from Oregon. Washington, Idaho, Montana and Utah met at the Seattle Tacoma Airport fors 9'j hour flight, non-stop to Tokyo Airport. Japan. I am Cathy Palmer and for me and many of the others, it was our first plane ride. The trip went very smoothly and we arrived a little sooner than scheduled because of the weather. After two days of orientation in Tokyo, two girls from Washington and Idaho and I took a plane from Tokyo to Osaka, then another plane from Osaka to Shikoku Island. Shikoku Island is the smallest of the four main islands of Japan. Alice Lammey. Idaho, Angela. Ragland. Washington and I all stayed in Marugame City with different host families. Each of us were staying with a girl who had stayed with us either one or two years ago in America In my Japanese family there were Tokuji Asae father. Sayoko-mother and the two girls Yoko(15) and Junko 13. We had many good times together and I learned and did many new things. Some of my experiences were: going to Labo camp, which is similar to our 4-H camp, for three days; going to the Pacific Ocean and seeing a professional dog figh: swimming in the sea between Shikoku and the main island; participating in a tea ceremony; going net fishing in the sea; sightseeing for six days in Osaka. Kyoto and Nara; and doing everything else that could possibly be done in the short five weeks we were there. Besides seeing and doing new things. I found Japan to be different in other ways. Japan has a very hot. humid climate. It is very crowded with the land used mostly for buildings, rice fields or tree-covered hills, which were more like mountains. Outside the main city centers, rice crops are grown between the houses and on the hills: terrace farming is used. Most of the streets are quite narrow and the cars very small. The Japanese people drive very fast and stop only when absolutely necessary. My Japanese father assured me several times that his driving was "safety driver." Most homes have both western-style and Japanese-style rooms, but not rooms of mixed styles. I stayed in the Japanese-style room as it was used more than the western style room. Part of the time I was there I slept on futon and then on a bed. Futon is bedding that is laved out on the floor at night and put in closets during the day. A custom I learned very quickly was not to go barefoot outside and to take off your shoes before entering the house. Slippers are provided in the houses if you wish to wear them. I found almost all the food quite good. Rice is a very big part of the Japanese diet, but bread is used a lot. too They also drink coffee as much as they do tea. While I was in Japan I had the opportunity to try many new foods. Among them was octopus, squid and raw fish. All of these were good, but when I tried thesukiyaki dipped in raw egg I couldn't eat it. Overall I'd say the food was pretty good. During my slay in Japan, two typhoons hit Shikoku Island. Marugame. where I stayed, didn't have any damage but another part of the island did. The two typhoons were the fifth and sixth to hit that area of Japan n Aug. 2fi. ail the 4 H ers met in Tokyo for two more days of sightseeing and rest. Then the morning of Aug. 28 we went to llaneda airport and boarded the jet that look us back to Seattle Tacoma Airport After going through customs, the Oregon group look a chartered bus to Portland and Salem where we were met by our families Ii was good to gel back, but I would definitely like to go a:;iiii sometime m the future. It was a good experience for me and I think anyone who is interested should really give some serious thought to going It is really worth the time and elforl and as I found out. it is NOT impossible The Oregon Lung Associa tion has scheduled the Christ mas Seal Breathmobile to test in lleppner, Tuesday, Sept. 23. 1975.
