Jiro and Masako in their later years、Take me to Shinshu when I see the occasion、I went to Suwa Lakeside Park。Accommodation、Shimosuwa Onsen Ryokan "Minatoya"。Masako visited for work in 1975、I completely like the unadorned personality of my husband and wife、from、The couple had to visit repeatedly.。
Yoshiko Oguchi (72 years old), the landlady, says:。
"Mr. Masako brings her own sheets、You left it。Western style、It was shaped like a bag that you could completely fit your body into."
The exchange is、It wasn't just a relationship between an inn and a customer。Mr. and Mrs. Oguchi、Attracted by the human charm of Jiro and Masako、Buaisou in Tsurukawa village almost every month、I decided to visit a villa in Karuizawa。My husband Sozaburo Oguchi (72 years old) says。
"Jiro-san also fell in love with soba.、I thought it was because I brought it as a souvenir、I heard later。Until then"あんなもの人間の食うもんじゃない"Was the saying、When we visit someday、First voice"Hey、Did you bring soba?"と仰るようになって・・・」
At Minatoya、Even now, the bamboo shoehorn that Jiro made and presented as a gift、It is kept carefully。
