1. If you plug the image into Google translate, it says:

   “Dear Flora, The
   photo was taken in my hometown
   of Yamagata. It was a pleasure to
   eat Yamagata cuisine with you in Nakano some time
   ago. As Brian’s friend, I can trust him from the beginning,
   which makes me happy. “

   Dear Ms. Flora

   This is a picture I took in Yamagata, where I come from. I was very happy that I happened to eat Yamagata cuisine with you in Nakano. They say you are a friend of Brian’s, so I could trust you from the start. It was nice.

   I guess you and this man had a great time 🙂
