The Emperor of Japan came to visit Kona and he brought his beautiful wife. Jeremy snapped a few pictures of their planes from the tower. It was really neat. We didn't get to meet them, but we read in the paper that many members of our local community were able to greet them at various places around town. The paper said that our Japanese locals felt especially honored to meet them because they were able to look at him and his wife. The article said that in Japan, the people must bow their heads and not look at them.
