Wat Phra Kaeo




Last summer, I took a trip to Thailand and Cambodia for a month. That was so nice. It was a first time for me to travel by myself. These pictures are about temple in Thailand. Thailand is a very nice place for travelers. People in Thailand are very kind for travelers.

Nebuta


I found this at Shibuya in this morning. This is a doll of Nebuta. Nebuta is a famous festival performed from August 2 to August 7 every year in Aomori. Why Nebuta held in Tokyo, I don’t know. But I’ve never seen it, so I want to see it.

Blogging class



Today is the last day of English conversation class. We had a party and Mr. Steve sang wonderful songs. For 2 weeks, I think these days ware very short. But we had a very good time. I got a chance to make this blog by our teacher, Robert, and made many good friends. I’m grateful to Robert and my friends for teaching. I’ll plan to have a party of this class soon. Anyway, I had a good time. Thanks.

Tokyo Disney Resort



My hometown, Urayasu, is best known as the home of the Tokyo Disney Resort. Tokyo Disney Resort has three main entertainment sections: Disneyland; Disneysea; and Ikspiari. Well, I was born and live in Urayasu. I'd been to Tokyo Disneyland many many times. When I was young, I had the passport of Tokyo Disneyland for a year. I’d been to there twice a week! Most of my friends say “You’re lucky! Your home is very close to Disneyland! How I envy you!” But It is No! It is not envious. My home is very close to Disneyland, so I don’t know the worth of them.

Sushi


"Sushi" is very famous Japanese food. And Tukiji fish market is a famous fish market in Tokyo. For many tourists in Tokyo, the Central Wholesale Market, better known as the Tsukiji fish market and said to be one of the best sushi destinations in the world, is synonymous with Tsukiji. It is also the largest fish market in the world handling more than 2000 tons of 450 types of seafood daily. There are many good sushi shops and sushi bar. I like “Toro” very much! “Toro” is the term for fatty part of tuna, found in the belly potion of the fish.

Let's go fishing

It's a beautiful day




On October, I will go to Asagiri Jam. Last year, I'd attended and enjoyed it. Asagiri Jam is a famous music festival held in Asagiri kougen near Mt.Fuji. The 2 day event features Japanese and international musicians performing on 2 stages. It’s not bigger than Fuji Rock Festival. But Asagiri Jam is known as very beautiful music festival.

Kamakura


In Japan, most of university students have a summer vacation for about 2 months. Some students travel abroad, some students travel in Japan. My friend, Ryousuke, traveled to Kamakura in this summer. Kamakura is a very famous tourist spot near Tokyo. It takes about an hour to Kamakura from Tokyo. Kamakura is now mainly known for its temples and shrines. These pictures are Tsurugaoka Hachiman Shirine and Great Buddha at Kōtoku-in by Koudai. Thanks Ryousuke.
