Last Wednesday, the kids were having something near Sunport Takamatsu, so I decided to go take a walk there. I think I hadn’t done that in several months. And on a weekday, late afternoon? Maybe not in years. So, I just took a few random pictures with my phone (which […]

The retirement of the old Meon and the arrival of its replacement are not the only things that are happening at Takamatsu Sunport at the moment. I knew it was coming, I was secretly hoping it wouldn’t (knowing it was totally unrealistic, but… you know… a man can hope…), but […]
Last week, I bid farewell to the old Meon, as you probably already know. I did it last week-end, because I knew I couldn’t be at Sunport today at noon when it actually left Takamatsu for the last time. My son had a year-end school event this morning, I obviously […]
Yesterday at noon, the old Meon came to Takamatsu for its farewell ceremony! It is being retired at the end of the week after almost 34 years of connecting Megijima and Ogijima to the rest of the world! Unfortunately, I missed the ceremony, but as I happened to be in […]
Beyond the Border(s) – The Ocean by Lin Shuen-long is a wonderful Art Setouchi artwork that has been sitting in Takamatsu Sunport for four years now, and I realize that I never wrote a proper post about it. So, I’m doing it before it’s too late. And first, why is […]

I’m talking about Taiwanese artist Lin Shuen […]
This year I had decided to blog about my Setouchi Triennale 2019 visits in chronological order, and as early as my second post about it, I’m throwing a wrench into it. See, I’ve been quite busy and I also caught a nasty cold (my son has started preschool; random nasty […]
Oh no, I got attacked by a white rabbit again! OK, so, about 10 days ago was the last leg of my series of tours with the people from Koebi and the Setouchi Triennale’s Organizing Committee for you-know-what. 😉 This time we went to both Megijima and Ogijima, and […]
Lin Shuen Long‘s Beyond the Border – the Ocean is still standing in Takamatsu Sunport. You can’t enter it at the moment (only during the Setouchi Triennale) but you can walk around it and admire it as much as you want. It should still be around next year, but […]
