It was the second day in Kumamoto.

We caught a typhoon in the morning.

By the way to the event hall of Marubishi Food & Beverage Trading Show, I feared for my physical safety because of unbelievably terrible rain storm.

Fortunately, the typhoon had gone away soon and I was safe.

Then we received a lot of visitors at my South Africa wine booth in the event.

We had a lot of people who tasted South Africa wine at the first time.

All of them were surprised at the high quality of the wine.

Especially, Chenin Blanc got very high reputations.

Jose worked very hard.

Especially, he took care a lot for beautiful ladies.
