Omaha featured in Shizuok, Japan City Newsletter

Post by SaOmaha »

A friend in the Omaha Sister City Association told me about The January issues of Omaha’s Sister City, Shizuok, Japan City Newsletter. It has a special article on Shizuoka's sister cities. The Omaha page has lot of pictures.

Omaha page only (198kb)

Entire paper (1.4mb)

The text is Japanese. I have used two difference internet translation services and discover the writing below the pictures are about our Zoo, Old Market, city’s agriculture products, River City Roundup (parade) & Boy Town. The lady pictured on the page is from Omaha, now living in Shizuok, Japan. There is even a picture of the ribbon cutting of the Sunpu Castle Gate Replica (Japanese gate) at Lauritzen Gardens.
