Not until 1030 that we arrived at the tent. Kak Lela was not there yet. Zainun was knocked-out and was not able to come and help Azad.

Azad needed to buy more fried mee. Well, I sensed a problem -- my Nihongo was very minimal. How could I communicate with these Japanese? If they only asked me 'Ikura des ka' or 'Kore wa nan des ka', I could answer that easily. If they stopped in front of the tent, I could asked them 'Ikutsu des ka'… and judging from their answer 'hitotsu', 'futatsu', 'mittsu', etc., I could handed over one, two, three or four 'yakisoba' to them. But if they asked me in detail what it was made up with, how could I answer?

Luckily, Azad's wife was quite fluent in Nihongo. Amran arrived soon after.

These were the people during the morning session. From left -- Azad, Azad's Japanese friend from whom he borrowed most of the utensils, Kak Lela, Kak Sara, Nakahara, myself, Minako (Kak Lela's second daughter), Amran and Kak Zah (Azad's wife).
