As my recent post mentioned, I was at Friendship Park in Avondale within the past week taking some photos. I was always under the impression that these statues had been given to Avondale by it’s Sister City, Kaizu, Japan.

But when I searched Avondale’s website, I couldn’t find anything to verify that and then there weren’t any plaques at the park either. The most I can find out is that Avondale and Kaizu have been involved in a Friendship Program for several years with student exchanges being part of that program.

I enjoyed seeing them anyway and will continue to believe they’re gifts from Japan.
Makes me happy…
and I’m all about being happy these days.

Doesn't "happy" just release all the appropriate endorphins to make you feel groovy? :-) I look so forward to reading your blog!
