From last weekend to this weekend

Last weekend was さやか's turn to come to 名古屋, we went to visit Museum of Ceramics Art in the station next to where 愛知万博 is held. We got a ticket to do our mould in the workshop, so we started thinking of what we are going to make. I made a little statue of 早香, a 家紋, and a big spoon. When we finished we had a bowl of そば in the the museum restaurant.


This is 早香の家紋.



This is the little statue of 早 embracing 香。

On our way home we stopped at 藤が丘駅 where we listened to 卒業 on our way to the ceramics, but now the mood changed to Rock n Roll. A young Elvis was on the stage with a guitar, another guy playing guitar at his left and at his right, the big bass.
It was cool though I didn't get a word from what he sang. Only Blue suede shoes seems familiar perhaps. And there were these young school girls dancing right under the stage releasing their stressful day having to go to school and do extracurriculer on Sunday. And there were grop of cowgirls also joined the dance. I couldn't help myself and asked for さやか to join the crowd with me. I was too excited with the rock n roll not realizing that I am 親父 already and my knee hurted the day after.

The next morning, we went to 瑞穂運動場 swimming pool. People were lining up due to hot summmer wave. The temporary closing of their outdoor pool might contribute the reason as well. We stayed waited for 30 minutes, and female were allowed in first. I had a cold milk from the vending machine and wait while talking to a Japanese guy who claimed to be graduated from USC and working in a bank somewhere in Nagoya. Well hope he can help me with my credit card. As a foreigner, I don't seem to have any credibility here. We chatted until they call my number and let me in. I don't really know how to swim, so I just played in water while さやか enjoy her sport. She was very happy to be able to enjoy sport again. When we get out of the pool, we walked back to our place, have a nap, and went out again for dinner at 三本木。We played Japanese squabble at 三本木、which was ripe time for me to learn new rude words from 千恵美さん, trust me, you don't want to use this words in public. 乳でかい、乳偉い、乳尊敬 was all of them. From さやか I learn about こてんぽんをされます。

This weekend was my turn to go to 船橋、I went out with さやか and her friend ミミ to ちひろ museum, ちひろ is a famous children book painter in Japan. Her artwork touches many hearts and there reason why she is so famous. We toured the two storey museum at the price of 円800 and watch a documentary of her work from a DVD display on second floor while I fell asleep for the umpteenth times. We had a great earthquake while having our snack in the patio. Soon we left the museum and found the 駅 was all jampacked and we cannot go anywhere as JR investigated the impact of the quake. We killed time around the デパト and finally found out that we can take a train. We stopped in Shinjuku, and have a dinner at La Pausa. Johan joined us at around 8:50, we were supposed to meet earlier, but he had to come home for his cat due to the quake. A man and his cat, he is really caring ne. We had a talk and drink there at la pausa until it was late enough to go home. We bid good bye and parted our ways. The next day we planned to go to お風呂 together, Johan brought his wife りえこ and we gathered at 北千住駅, I was late for almost one hour and couldn't stopped apologizing. We walked for about 5 minutes from the station until we saw an old woodened お風呂 named 大黒屋。We got in the 風呂 and enjoyed our bath and massage. When we finished, Johan and I drinked a milk like Japanese 親父。When we got out we were seated at the living room where we enjoyed the beauty of Japanese garden and a can of kirin beer. When it was about time. We walked our way home and parted halfway as Johan and his wife took another way home.
