Moving to a New Condo

We are going to move to a new condominium in Utsunomiya next week. It’s located just twenty minutes from here on foot. We have been living in our current condominium since March in 1996 when we moved in from Tokyo.

Since several new higher buildings were constructed in front of our residence, the daytime when we can get sunlight in our rooms decreased a lot and the view from its balcony became far worse than before.

Those triggered me to buy a new one.
Empty rooms get a lot of sunshine and the view from the rooms is excellent.
We can’t wait for the day of moving.

Emi And Her Close Friend At Their High School

My wife Kiyono, my daughter Emi and her close friend went to Emi’s high school to feed fish which were kept at her high school.
I didn’t go with them, but Kiyono took a video for me so I could see the scene of their feeding.
I trimmed a few pictures out of the video.

Emi is recently very busy studying for her college entrance exams scheduled in the coming January. So, it’s hard for her to find an ample fun time with her friends. Nor can she find a fun time at home.

Since I rarely see Emi’s big laughing recently at home, somehow I was relieved by seeing such a loud laughing and the scene they enjoyed feeding fish.

The Site Of A Traffic Accident

I happened to come across the site of a traffic accident on my way to Futara-yama shrine yesterday. When I passed-by there, several firefighters and police were checking the car and asking people involved in the accident.
Apparently, the car had caught fire and firefighters had put it out before I saw them.

After coming back home, I checked the web site of a local news paper about the accident. It said that luckily nobody were seriously injured.

I firmly decided I would never do speeding, though this feeling would disappear in several weeks. lol
