From Hirakata-city, Osaka-prefecture, Japan

 August 12 was said to be the best day to watch The Persides so we decided to watch it. I searched good place to watch near here and found hotani . It is about 30 min by car so we went there. The weather condition of this day was cloudy so I guessed there might be 50% chance to watch it. We stayed there about 8 PM till 10 PM but couldn't watch it so we came back home and watched internet live below. It was sad but it might be good memory for our summer holiday.

We went to fukuchiyama city to watch fukuchiyama-castle. Fukuchiyama Castle has become famous for this year's NHK drama "kirin ga kuru" which is a story of Akechi Mitsuhide who built this castle 400 years before and my wife loved this drama very much and she is eager to watch this castle. This day (24 July) was the second day of 4 days' consecutive national holiday and this day was forecasted to rain little in the mid of the rainy season so we decided to go there. This is " Fukuchiyama hidemitsu museum " which is held for one year. In front of this castle, there are some souvenir shops. After watching this castle, we had tea time at western confectionery mountain .

Recently, I've made web-app( notebook of words ) for myself and found that the web is a very powerful tool. So I want to write down some key factors for making this app. Framework & Cloud services In this site, I use framework below   -frontend: Angular   -API server: Node.js & Express   -PaaS: Heroku.com   -DB server: MongoDB(mlab.com)   -Authentification: firebase.com Frontend (Angular) and Backend (Express)  are connected by RESTful API endpoint which I write lately. I also use the official Node.js driver for connecting MongoDB(mlab.com) instead of using mongoose. Image is below. I like server-based javascript language. Before a couple of years ago, I didn't know much about javascript but after using Angular, I've been fascinated by this language. I know object-based language through javascript and typescript. I think javascript is not what it was 10 years ago. It is a modern programing language, I think. I also use VScode & GitHub.  VScode is lighter than AT

In such an unusual situation, there seem to be some tips. I wrote down these things. Using my brain   In a hotel, I tend to lie in bed, watching TV for a long time. Lying in bed is easy and relaxing but it brought down my dairy rhythm. It is also not good for the mental point of view because my physical condition had gotten worse. If this is a few days' stays, it may be no trouble. But spending over 10 days might affect our body. My symptoms are like feeling tired, sleepy always, feeling bad. I think it is an initial symptom of melancholia. So I changed my ordinary routine like this.  - switch off TV  - Instead of watching TV, listing music using Bluetooth speaker via PC or smartphone  - sitting on chair instead of lying in bed.  - using PC, writing something like this, programming using cloud platform(it's same when I was in Osaka)  - reading books of kindle Using the brain is very good because it it stimulates the frontal lobe. (Watching TV for no purpose is not g

I have been experiencing a hotel life in another area for about 1 month. It was due to the coronavirus. My branch's main office is at Osaka and backup-location is at another area which is not used in an ordinary situation. And in case some employees catch the coronavirus, we have started this business continuity plan that means some employees move to this area, staying at hotel and working at this office for a certain period of time. My turn was started on 27 April. I don't want to eat a lunch box or eat outside every time so I decided to buy food materials that can be cooked using a microwave oven because there are no cooking devices at a business hotel except microwave oven. And I'm very surprised that there are many varieties of such foods at convenience stores or supermarkets like AEON. My ordinary dinner is like  - 1/2 package of vegetables (1 package cost 100yen)  - two packages of foods (each cost around 100-200 yen)  - rice (200g)  - miso soup  

Last December, we bought new TV. We had been using old-type(CRT) TV for about 20 years but price of 4K TV has become lower. And one year has passed since 4K broadcast started and 4K tuner build-in TVs have become popular so we were recently checking them. I had been checking Panasonic and SONY 4K TV and I like the tone of SONY so I decided to buy  BRAVIA KJ-49X9500G . This is highest model of 4K liquid crystal TV except organic EL TV(organic EL TV is expensive for us). 4K TV is said to be darker than existing products but this one adapt special LED control technology which enhance light image so we can clearly see dark shadow. At first, I want to buy it at electronics retail store near our home because we want a guarantee (procedure of replacement seemed to be a little inconvenient if we bought it with internet shopping)  but price was higher than the price we can paid for it. And Some weeks had passed and we happend to find very low price. The price of Kojima.net is very low. It

This year, we came back to my hometown shizuoka from 30 Dec. to 3 Jan. 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. We arrived shizuoka at 21:17. 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 recent
