Sunday we took the bus to the New Jersy countryside. We could visit a more than interesting collection, with the focus on muromachi and momoyama kabuto. The owner organised a super bbq in the sun on the terrace in front of his house.
Great fun!!!

Today, we visited the Samurai museum in Dallas,
Where Mr and Ms Barbier-Mueller received us in one of their restaurants. Afterwards, mr Gabriel showed us his many latest acquisitions.
The farewell-diner in Tex Mex style was the end of another great journey.
Thanks To all who made this possible again!

It was awesome. So great to see so many like minded friends, and on top of that, like a bonus, many, many amazing pieces.

We are already brainstorming about the next edition :-)
