Although it is very late,
happy new year.
Thank you for your continued support this year.
I just returned from a nearly one month vacation.
This time, I went on the usual JAL flight, but on the way back, I don't know, but I took Finnair (shared flight??) and changed at Helsinki.
The plane was also AY, so I was used to JAL's (though economy) space and service, so it was a pain.
The movies I was looking forward to, I don't know when, but the same old Harry Potter series.
As for Japanese movies, it's still the same as "Okuribito" (I was wondering if they've updated it, but there was "Your Name" as well, so I wonder if they're doing it...just in case).
But among them, there was also a movie called ``Danchi'', which I liked, and Ittoku Kishibe, so it was interesting.
To be salty, I watched ``Bridget Jones,'' which is considered mandatory for my age, and then I saw ``Danchi,'' a movie by Tim Burton whose name I forgot, and I didn't want to watch it anymore, so... I didn't have one, so I looked at Tom Cruise.
In the end, Tom Cruise didn't know what he was fighting for until the very end.
It's tiring, so I chose it because I thought it would be the easiest to understand and enjoy. .
Lately, since I'm an old lady, I've been taking direct flights even if it's a little more expensive, so it's been a while since I've had to change to a connecting flight.
I'm already stressed about having to transfer trains in 45 minutes on my way home.
Moreover, since we entered the EU at the time of Helsinki, we also had to pass through immigration control during this transfer.
When I arrived in Paris, I entered the country in a rather casual manner, but perhaps because of my nationality, I was a little surprised because they asked me questions and looked at me more closely than I expected.
In the beginning, I must have worked hard to switch.
So, I guess I was late.
At first, I didn't have any plans for this Japon, so I thought, "Oh, I'll take it easy, but I have some free time."
I hadn't told my friend that I was leaving, but two or three days after I arrived, I received a message asking, "Are you there?"
"I'm here. Are you coming?" I replied jokingly.
"I'm looking at the tickets right now."
"What! Seriously!!!"
Before I knew it, three or four days after we were talking about this, he arrived at Haneda and picked me up.
I can't believe a foreigner is coming! Introducing him to his unlikely father, going to a sushi restaurant,
I toured TOKIO, stayed at a friend's house in Kamakura, went to the usual Kyoto and Nara, went to Asakusa, climbed the Sky Tree,
All of a sudden, I got so busy that I didn't have any free time, and it was all over in the blink of an eye.
I've been to Kamakura and Kyoto several times over the past few years.
I've seen the Great Buddha in Nara since I was on a school trip when I was a junior high school student!
We were together for a few days, so we had a lot of fights,
That was fun too.
Then, I was surprised to receive a contact via Facebook from a girl I was good friends with when I was in the second year of junior high school.
And half a year ago.
I didn't notice it at all because I didn't use it at all.
I quickly contacted him and decided to meet him.
Wan was so excited that she thought she was about to meet her ex-boyfriend.
However, we didn't change one bit at all, and it was really interesting to be able to talk about things that we both don't remember.
She was the first person who influenced me, so Moki is happy to be reunited with her.
I was shying away from SNS like this. But it's amazing, it's a paon that was impossible in the age of pagers.
Mochi, I remember when I was in junior high school, touch-tone telephones were just starting to become popular.
Of course, we never exchanged personal contact information like kids do now,
If you change schools, it's normal for relationships to be severed, so it might be amazing.
Currently, he is searching for the child who came to his birthday party on a motorcycle owned by a soba restaurant.
Just like that, it was a fun and quick vacation.
I miss Japan already!
