Captain of Kanrin Maru
April 1, 1860
Kanrin Maru
During the travel to the Academy of Music, where I will be listening to talented musicians performing, I saw many shops decorated with Japanese and American flags. It was a great excitement to see street offices adorned with flags that portrayed a nice welcome. The performance was spectacular. Although i would admit that the performers had a strange attire; red shirt with tight sleeves. But the place was absolutely beautiful. They really tried to recreate the Japanese peony tree with shiny glass balls hanging from the ceiling and with the white walls that compliment the whole image. Today might had been the most lovely day of the whole trip in San Francisco!
I also heard that the performance at the Academy of Music was quite wonderful! Oh! I envy the Japanese embassy and officers!
