UMBRELLAS AND BEAUTIFUL WOMEN, my fondest memories of Japan. They are forever linked in my mind. So many times, in Enoshima, Yokohama or any area, there were smiles beneath each umbrella grasped in the hands of Japan women, young and old. There was always a certain joy in a slow pace during a steady and light rain that made the ancient lanterns and old stone walls reflect the light like a watercolor reflects light.
