Day 1(30 Dec.)
 This day was last day of winter cram school so I picked up him at 15:00 and took train to Kyoto. This time, my wife stayed Osaka due to her father's health.
My son was bringing big present for my parents.

Day 2 (31 Dec.)
 After breakfast, we went to the theater to watch STAR WARS !


After enjoying movie, we went back to my home and went to lunch at ordinary restaurant.

Shizuoka black oden
Egg and beef muscle. Each peace about $1. Shizuoka oden shop is popular around shizuoka city. These shop is like candy store at street corner and we often went there and ate after finishing elementary school.
Soup is cooked together with beef muscle and color of soup has become black. I like it very much.

sakura ebi don
Sakura ebi(=shrimp) don(=bowl) is also popular at shizuoka city. Sakura ebi is shizuoka's popular sea food but recently catches of sakura ebi is becoming less.

Afterthat, we switched our TV on and saw what happend in Japan, so our work had almost stopped afterthat. (safely, my house in Osaka and my parents and brother and sister's house in Shizuoka-pref. was safe) Magnitude 8.8 was very huge.

Goldsmith College, UK

When I was a graduated student, I went to London and enjoyed summer school at Goldsmith college for about a month, because I wanted to spend good time at that period. Goldsmith college was located near New Cross station and I stayed at dormitory of this college, because at summer time, dormitory was empty due to the summer vacation time. And I happened to watch Flickr yesterday and search the word "New Cross", then found Goldsmith College's & around this area's picture and felt longing for this town. New Cross is located about half an hour from central London by train, so it is very convenient place to go around central London. And this town is not so big (in another saying, feel a little deserted-looking), so I enjoyed the fist experience of abroad in a relaxing mode, so I liked this town very much. If you see this picture , you can see the dormitory(*) where I stayed about 20 years ago, so I am deeply moved. (*) UK's college is started at September, s

Our new family !

Image
He is our new family and he is our first baby! He was born on 28 May, and this Wednesday he came our home from hospital and 4 days had passed. He is very very bouncing baby so my wife couldn't sleep well, but we love him very much. He cried very loudly so we tried to ease him in various ways, and this picture is one of ways to be quiet. (this red material is a rattle and if I shake this rattle, he is very curious about it and hear this rattle's sound and sometimes stop crying!)
