旧友に４５年振りに再会 Meeting with my old friends after 45 years blank

１１月１６日（日）

今日は何と４５年振りで昔の友達に再会。誰かの文句じゃないけど、あれから５０年という感じ。結婚前にアメリカはマサチューセッツ州のアマーストの大学で出会ったカップルです。日光に来ておられて夕方京都に帰るとの突然の電話に驚くやら、なつかしいやら、何とか時間を作って会って来ました。１時間半の短かったこと。駅前のホテルでコーヒーを前につもる話に我を忘れたひと時。お互いに重ねた星霜に感慨深いものがありました。
An unexpected thing happened to me today. I met my old friends(a couple) for the first time since 45 years ago. I met them on the campus in Amherst in Mass. when I was still a student there. They gave me a sudden call yesterday asking if I had a time to meet them before they go back to Kyoto this evening.So surprised and moved with a kind of home-sick feeling, I rushed to JR Nikko station. We spent over one hour in the hotel in front of the station chatting over our life in the past through so many years. We got old each other. That's for sure. But we still have another life to challenge and respect as far as we are in good shape.
