Tomoko and Yuiko


Here is a picture of our friend Tomoko with her baby Yuiko and new friend Lillia at Tomoko's family home in Tokyo. Tomoko usually lives in Cusco, Peru, where she runs an eco-tourism agency with her Peruvian husband, Walter, and writes books and articles for the masses. But when she found she would need a c-section to deliver a baby that just would not cooperate and turn around, she decided to return home and give birth at the University of Tokyo Hospital. We just missed Walter, who flew home for work the day we arrived.

Yuiko is 3 months old and a delightful baby girl who does all of the baby things extremely well, including smiling, cooing, and eating.

Grandma is, of course, very proud of Yuiko. She let Lillia help care for the little girl.

We visited the Suzuki family home on Wednesday and were treated to a feast for lunch.
It was a great day.
