PAGE EIGHT Subject: BY NAN "Mr. and Mrs. Jay Barn- hart flew from Philadelphia on June 27 to attend the Lions International Conven- tion held in Tokyo, Japan. Enroute to Japan they stop- ped in Hawaii and toured the island of Oahu for three days. Unfortunately they hit Japan during the rainy sea- son and were unable to see some. of the sights because of heavy fog and cloudiness. While in Tokyo they tour- ed the Olympic Stadium, viewed the Imperial Palace, went up in the Tokyo Tow- er, which is the highest tow- er in the world, and did some shopping. After four days of attending the con- vention, they went by bus to Atami and from there to Osaka by the “bullet train” at speeds up to 130 MPH. At Kyota, Japan, they toured tea plantations and rice pad- dies. Traveling on, a stop at Toba and a boat trip to Pearl Island, owned by Mikimoto, a famous pearl dealer. A highlight of the trip was staying at the fabulous Fu- jiyva Hotel at Miyanoshita Hakone, Japan. After being gone for 16 days and losing several hours by crossing the International Date Line, they are now at home and resting. During the trip Mr. Barn- hart was able to take many interesting slides. This week Mr. and Mrs. Barnhart are hosting a 15-year old French exchange student in their home, Jean (pronounced John) Reynier. He is here in Mount Joy sponsored by the Lions Club for six weeks. John does not speak English so communication is diffi- cult. The Barnharts were ad- vised not to speak French, but to guide him in learning their language. * * # "Mr. and Mrs. Richard Hoo- ver, children Cindy, Steve and Scott enjoyed a vacation in Wildwood, New Jersey, last week.
