Thank you very much, Prince Akishino and princess Kiko.

Thank you very much to everyone in Hawaii. 🙇

By the way, unfortunately in Japan as usual 

there are few reports of Prince and Princess Akishino's visit to Hawaii.

Finally, I hope that the eruption of Kilauea volcano subsides quickly.
I would like to convey my most heartfelt sympathy to the sufferers from the eruption.
