Today we made the challenging journey to Toyota City. It is about 45 minutes away from Nagoya by car but took us about 2 hours by train (actually two trains and a bus.) We first went to the HQ of Toyota motor corporation for a factory tour that was quite interesting because we walked above the factory floor on a catwalk and could see how they work with robots to assemble the cars in the final stage. Very clean and orderly. It inspires confidence in our Scion (made by Toyota.)
Next we made it to the original destination for this whole trip: our exhibition at the Toyota Municipal Museum of Art. This building and it's surrounding grounds are among the best I've ever seen in terms of brilliant use of space, light and materials. 
Our work was included in a Works on Paper show curated by Ryozo and Yoko Moristita (at the desk.)
Also on the grounds was the best modern teahouse I've ever seen! Too bad we didn't have time for tea.
