School Trip

     A will leave for Hokkaido for the school trip next week. I hope she will have a good memory of it with her friends, but I have a concern. As you know, the G8 Hokkaido Toyako Summit will be held in Hokkaido at the same time. The Japanese Government will have elaborate plans against terrorist plots, but I'm afraid A could be involved in the terror. A group of parents were insisting that the trip be put-off for security reasons and to avoid the packed airport and jammed traffic. Their opinion is acceptable, at least for me. However, that wasn't the case in the eyes of A. She said they should visit there just now, because it is a rare chance to see what the summit meeting is like.
     Her way of thinking is just like me. Opportunities are not always in our reach. Her life will be active and aggressive in a good way.
