On our summer vacation we visited a famous port town,Shimizu located between Tokyo and Kyoto.When we were in the fish market sitting on the bench,one native man talked to us introducing what representative fish product they have.As the conversation has got activated,he offered us he'll send us their fresh product as soon as he gets it.

In such case as we've experienced many times that promises are easily broken,but we anyway left our address for him.After a few day later,however,to our great surprise he really sent us two packs containing small fresh fish!!I can't believe a man being so honest to us whom he doesn't have any chance to meet again.

Moving along the way,the port town Shimizu is famous for having Samurai time hero Shimizu no Jirochoh who was very strong as well as very generous and kind to strangers.I thought he might be the ancestor of him.

We were lucky able to have experienced such heartwarming story in our desolated society.
