I often work from the afternoon until late at night, so during summer vacation my living schedule is quite different.  My children are also on vacation, so I tend to wake up earlier and go to bed at a more reasonable time.  It allows me to enjoy certain parts of the day in a different way than I normally do.  I love to sit on my balcony when the sun is going down and appreciate the beautiful colors in the sky.  Here’s a picture of the beautiful sunset that I saw the other day.

当たり前のことかもしれませんが、どこの国に行っても夕陽が沈む光景が見られるスポットは人気があるものです。この写真はアンコールワット付近で夕陽を見る地元の人と観光客です。赤いですよね！

夏休みも残りあとわずか。宿題がまだ終わっていない人はいませんか。

夏といえば海や川などレジャーが人気ですが、涼しい部屋で見る甲子園も捨てがたいです。

今年は、応援していた高校が惜しくも敗れてしまいましたが、どこの高校が優勝するのか楽しみです。

京都国際と関東第一。決勝は今週金曜日（明後日）です。

時間がある人はぜひ見てみてください。一緒に応援しましょう。

Hey y’all! 

It’s that time of year again when towns light up for summer festivals. This month I attended the Water Festival in Ogaki. I got to enjoy lots of food and dance! Did y’all go to the festival? 

See Y’all in class! 

Kia ora and hello everyone!

A few weeks ago, my dad and little brother came to Tokyo for a couple of days on their way back from The U.K.

I was lucky enough to go up and see them and we got to sight-see around Tokyo! My dad was here 35 years ago, but for my little brother, it was his first time!

It was insanely hot, so we spent most of our time sheltered indoors but it was a great time, and I’m glad I could show them around. I hope they come back soon!
