The people dipicted in this picture are ones who lost their way to the convention. Sal, the man in blue, Tawni, the chinese woman, Carl, the shinduian and Nespa, the white sailor are all trying to make their way to the convention and somehow all got lost in the same area. A map was printed out and sent to on person from every country and out of all the countries these four people read the map wrong. After all meeting in the same place they asked eachother if they were the only ones. Carl replied "no,thats impossible, there are too many countries for us to be the only ones who came" and the rest agreed. After questioning their situation from a while they decided to walk to the nearest gas station and get new directions! While walking for about 20 minutes they realized that they could see no signs of civilization and proceded to panic. They hadnt realized where they were or who dropped them off.

She has been traveling on a ship for a few months now. The captain of this boat, who wears a white jacket, hates her because she distracts all the attention of the crew when they should be maning the ship. There is a sailor on this boat that is love sick towards her. She avoids him as much as possible. A second sailor, a man that is sunburnt from the sun, tries getting her attention by showing off. She later gets to America. Not just free from the culture of Japan, but also from the crazy men of the ship.

Perhaps they are really one man – a man imbedded so deeply in her psyche that she can't escape him. In all of these years I've never seen her smile.
