Merry Christmas and A Happy New Millennium

View of Japan Alps and Kamikochi from Mt. Yakedake (about 10,000 feet)
Harumi started over-night works at a steam power plant in Tokyo Electric Power Company Ltd. She sometimes enjoys travels in India.

Jun joined with Tanaka & Sakai laboratory, the course of information engineering, the University of Tokyo as a master student this April. His major is re-configurable processors.

We, Sumiko & Yoichi, visited San Francisco and Hawaii last June. As Yoichi became very busy at administrative works as the director-in-general of Research Center, this travel was the only one abroad.

Instead, we frequently visited mountains, and enjoyed hikes. The photo is a view of Japan Alps from Mt. Yakedake, about 10,000 feet high.

All of us are healthy and active for everything. We also wish you and your family a merry Christmas and a happy new millennium.
