AICHI GUIDE TALK SHOW 1

Saturday October 2, at Kanayama doing a talk show for the Aichi Guide Network. I'm a director of the group that aims to provide quality guides around Aichi Prefecture for foreign visitors. The first half of the talk show centered on Nagoya and Nagoya Castle in particular...
Part 2 had me in more traditional garb, talking about Japanese Samurai armour....
during the talk, I showed the audience the various pieces, and by putting it on gave them an insight into the armour, it's creation and value to the samurai on the battlefield...
I was able to explain that the armour wasn't usually a uniform, but mostly chosen by the wearer according to their tastes, rank and pocket. .....
