We had breakfast with Mamasan sitting in with us again.
I told her (through Makoto San of course) that I had been in Japan for two weeks and this was the best food I had. Mamasan told us I was the first Gaijin she had accommodated and asked if she could have a photo.
After we packed up and paid (it was just under 8,000 yen - the most I had paid so far but worth every yen!!), she attempted to take a photo but her battery was flat. I got Makoto San to take the photo with my phone and Mamasan gave me her card so I could mail it to her.
Unfortunately her card was the only thing I lost out of the trillion or so pieces of paper I kept from the trip and even though she has a website, I couldn't find it with Google - even with help from my Japanese friends.

Footnote: Oct 3 - After reading this post, the delightful and helpful Dave Turkington contacted me and through sharing the limited amount of information I could remember about Mamasan, he was not only able to locate her guest house, but her email address! I have now emailed her the images above...Thanks again Dave - you're precious!

If you send me the picture you want to give Mama-san, and the name of her business, i'll print the picture and try and deliver it as i pass through Matsuyama next spring. Assuming it is near the walkers route.
Dave in Chicago.
