The award ceremony of the 8th International Ceramics Competition Mino, Japan was on August the 1st, 2008.
I left on the train from Kamakura early in the morning. I arrived 3 1/2 hours later just in time for the Opening Ceremony. After the opening talk by the mayor of the city and the organizer of the competition the judges and Grand Prix winners cut the ribbon.
