日本文が後ろに続きます。 One day a postcard arrived at my flat inviting me to a party by an old boys and girls’ association of the high school to be held on 27 April this year at Takarazuka. I had never seen such kind of party by high school classmates before since the commencement ceremony 21 years before.…

Tribute to stewardesses / 機上の女神
日本文が後ろに続きます。 I love stewardesses, or female flight attendants working on the aeroplane. As is often the case with Asian airlines, Japan’s airlines such as Japan Airlines and All Nippon Airways have many attractive-looking stewardesses because of the history they once hired such women as flight attendants. Nevertheless, I love them not only because they look…

Deep in England / イギリス漬け
日本文が後ろに続きます。 Last weekend was happy days for me because I deeply experienced a British taste last Saturday and Sunday. From the beginning, I preferred the USA to the UK or other English-speaking countries. Still, my affection has been shifting to England for years since I happened to read Kaoru Mori’s Emma, a romance manga about…

Shanghai — the exciting city / 上海行ってきました
日本文が後ろに続きます。 I returned from Shanghai Tuesday night. I couldn’t see so many things there because it was completely a business trip, not a private sightseeing trip, and I had a lot of work there. But I found out how exciting and mysterious that city was. I’ve updated a set of the trip on Flickr though…

Going to Shanghai / 上海行ってきます
I’m going to Shanghai for a 100% business trip this time. It snowed very much near Narita Airport when I was coming in the Limousine Bus, but it’s fine now.今から上海に行きます。今回は完全に仕事の出張です。成田に来るときは大雪でしたが今は晴れています。 I wonder if I will be able to use the Internet in China because I hear Twitter and Facebook are all blocked there…さて中国でマトモにネットができるかどうか疑問です。TwitterもFacebookもブロックされてると聞いてるので。。。。

Going back to Japan
The last night of the trip I stayed within Changi Airport because if I had stayed in a hotel room, I would’ve missed the returning plane departing at 7:10 in the morning. Fortunately, Changi Airport opens 24 hours a day, and it doesn’t close at midnight. Because UA check-in counters were closed until 4:30 am,…
