On my first visit I met people who became some of my closest friends during the year, one of whom is coming to visit me in Scotland in a few months! I introduced Shiraishi Island to classmates, Okayama based friends and visitors from overseas and I continue to sing the praises of this charming little Island.. In just a few days time when Golden Week starts a bunch of my friends will meet on Shiraishi Island and drink their body weights in Moogaritas at the [Moooo! Bar](http://dollarbooks.tripod.com/moooobar/ "Moooo! Bar").. I couldn’t be any more jealous! These are just a few of the snaps I took on my various visits to the island, they represent some very happy memories.. I’ll be back on the sandy beaches wearing my cow-patterned shorts, supping an ice cold beer and watching Manchan dance before long!
