Exploring Japan

What an amazing day yesterday. We all journeyed out to Kamakura, a nearby town. Kamakura is famous for their temples and the Great Buddha.  It is also close to the ocean and has a great looking beach (although it was too cold for a swim – but not too cold for ice cream).  Everyone had a lot of fun and  really enjoyed the day.  

    
    
    
    
    
   

Back

It has been a bit since we posted but things are going well. The holidays are in full swing here and that includes   visits from Santa Claus (Mikaela checking to see if he drank the milk and ate the cookies in picture below) and some of Jeannie’s family. They got in yesterday and we are all thrilled to see them. Quick tour of Yokohama today to get acclimated. That of course included a stop at the Cup Noodle Musesum.
   
 

Paris

In Paris for work and taking in the COP activities. Great night last night at International NYT event with the boss followed by the PSG match with some of the journalists in town.   Tonight we celebrated the 5th anniversary of the Nissan Leaf. This car has done so much to advance the EV around he world.    So happy to spend time with the team, see old friends and make new ones. 

   

On the road

What an great opportunity last week to visit our Sunderland plant. The official start of production for the new Infiniti Q30 took place at the plant Thursday and it was great to see. I also got the opportunity to tour part of the plant.  Amazing to see the vehicles being assembled, what goes into it and to meet some of the people who make these vehicles. I look forward to visiting again soon. Home for a quick weekend now back on the road.
