The curtain, rolled up to make a 20m long, 80 cm thick sausage, was tied to caster wheels and pulled through town in a procession featuring traditional dancers, musicians, Samurai and more, to it's new home, a specially built private museum.

I lead the Samurai procession with Mr. Honda, ( in the vermillion armour) a direct descendent of the famed Samurai general, Honda Heihachiro. Behind me in the red helmet is Mabuchi San, who came with me to Sydney last year...

At the end of the procession, the Samurai team raised their swords in victory of having the tapestry safely delivered to it's new home. ....And for the TV cameras of course!

The Inuyama Samurai team group shot at the end of the day... Looking forward to doing more events with this team soon!
