Good to see the Japanese boy who was lost in the woods has been found.
Hope people are not too hard on him and his family!

Looks like the hut where Yamato was found: https://www.google.com/maps/@42.0725169,140.764528,447m/data=!3m1!1e3

Looks like it is not too far from some other houses.

It would be interesting to know where he started from . . . http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2016/06/05/national/misguided-search-hokkaido-boy-testament-unpredictability-children-rescuers-say/
