Marilyn Monroe and Joe Demajio in Japan

In winter of 1954, when I came back from the school, my mother said "We will go to see Marilyn
Monroe. Get ready!".
I changed the clothing and we took a streetcar to Hibiya where at Imperial Hotel, Marilyn and Joe Demajio stayed for their honeymoon.

We waited with crowd. I donot remember how long we were there.
Then people around began huming.
We were aclose the street, the doors of the terrace opened a woman and a man appeared.
They were Mrilyn and Joe Demajio.
People were very happy to see them waveing hands.

I read later they stayed for a while in Japan and Marilyn went to Korea visiting the U.S. military
people there fighting with mostly Chinese at that time.

When I was president of an agency, Imperial Hotel was one of our clients.
I told the story to Mr. Kobayashi who is president of the hotel, then he went to the back office
and returned with an album. There were some pictures of Marilyn and Joe Demajio and among
them I found the one they waved hands from the terrace of the room.

There were a crowd outside but I could not identify where we were.

During their stay in Japan, Joe was busy for his appointments with Japanese baseball teams.
