“This visit here shows that not only am I personally fond of the prime minister, but that the ties between our peoples are very strong as well,” Bush told reporters following the tour, which he called “unusual.”

Koizumi, meanwhile — wearing a pair of thick, gold-rimmed glasses in the style of Elvis — said, “My dream came true.”
