It’s been over 25yrs since I last saw one of my gymnastics mentors. (One of us is losing his hair.)
We finally got together last night in his home town, Osaka, to catch up on old times. Shiro took me to this famous and historic restaurant.
It looks old, but is actually located in a brand new and modern shopping centre. They’ve kept the same look and décor as decades ago.

Sugoi Desanay!
Chris G and I caught up with Shiro in ’95 following Universiade. He looks about the same!
Shiro coached me at UofA when still training, and Chris at UofC. Great times.
Hi Shiro! 🙂
