OK Paul,



1. The Mazda guys locked up your camera.



2. You got jet lag.



3. You're torturing us rotorheads.



4. Mazda made you sign a non disclosure agreement.



5. You went to a Japanese Bath House and you got so relaxed you forgot all you saw.



6. You want us to beg!



Which is it?



So when are you going to tell us all about the trip with all the illustrations?

Patience Jim. I am still playing catch up and filing all the photos.
Here is a brief itinerary; 

Non stop to KIX from LAX on Mon/Tues. (Cross the date line.)
Haruka Express to Kyoto. Two hours $30 each. Rented a small Honda car from Avis 
around the corner from the hotel on Thursday morn. $50 a day unlimited miles. 
56 MPG no hybrid. Drove 5 hours to Hiroshima. $50 in toll road tools. A pleasure
to drive on fine highways on the left side. (The bullet train would have been 
$130 each..... each way for a grand total of $520.)

Took the Mazda engine factory tour on Friday. Drove back to Kyoto on Sat. Took 
the Haruka Express back to KIX. Flew to Honolulu on Sunday. Stuck for two days 
flying UAL standby. Flew to MCO on Tues. with one hour stop over and change planes at LAX.
