This morning we visited Makishima Junior High School, Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture. Because we had so many Peace Run representatives we were able to set up little tables representing around 18 different countries. The students were given passports and completed activities at each table. Then they got their passport stamped.
We had with us some beautiful banners of Peace Run founder, Sri Chinmoy's, artwork.
