Cute Chocolat

Standard

It is normally the day for me and mom to visit “Arles”, accompanied by dad if weekend or holiday. However, he stays in Hokkaido where 2-night reunion is held from yesterday. Since souvenir delicacies are highly expected, we just wait at home. By the way, happy to see Mr. Air Conditioner stop weeping after Friday when we headed Tsukuba horsey riding club.

Forecast rainfall started around 15 : 00, following sky in shade of my coat, purr. I felt rejoice from ground and plants at nose, so did mom who was ironing dad’s shirts. We were a bit worried about power outage hearing distant thunder, while had no problem. By the way, drops also sound in our living room: Mr. Air Conditioner still weeps working. We hope to give him good rest tomorrow.

Mr. Air Conditioner, please let Shin, Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun appreciate your 25-year job. You have worked even if bats live or washed within, left never vacuumed on filters until recently.

Solar September

Here we are on the 1st, purr. It is quite nice to see a new month start from Monday, isn’t it? Dad, I and mom visited 三昧塚古墳 yesterday meaning the end of August, while summer vacation for children. Grasshopper guardians greeted us who paid respects toward a great king in our Kofun or Tumulus period. By the way, a mayor candidate is waiting in a car park below, yet we live in a different city.

Over and Over

Standard

… again, I and mom was forced cancellation of a horsey riding lesson. Although I ordered Mr. Lake 霞ヶ浦 more of my coat in the sky, it worked only early in the morning. 10 : 00 already saw the sun shine a bit too much. Well, no need to be pressed, we heard nice news. A test for the 3rd grade will be held on February 22nd, 2026. It is the date of my breed, purr. Why don’t we set it as a goal?

Opposite Option

Standard

I and mom were forced to cancel a lesson at our horsey riding club; we heard heatstroke alert again, 4th and consecutive. We therefore stay home all day long, see her implement 晴耕雨読=work outdoors on sunny days, study by textbooks indoors during rainy ones. Or a bit wrong since she learns Portuguese in scorching time, dances with Mr. Marumorita if clouds give cooler wind.

Depart fm Delhi

Standard

… for Mumbai dad heads. He therefore drove me and mom toward “Arles” on Sunday with an umbrella, instead of today. Since Dr. K kindly sent her other delicacy, we enjoyed great pieces of art from 2 pâtisseries. And oh, a business partner gave him a box of Indian sweet decorated by silver leaves. They sound like my coat, don’t they? Purr … purrr …

Welcome home from shopping mom, purr. She tried going out in the morning today, found Ms. Scarlet cooler than usual evening. You saw Master Mei-Shu in an egret? Ah, she kindly received your admiration, appeared to show her gratitude. You sent a sun flower bouquet, keeping away from normal, cold colours for beloved ones. On the other paw of mine, I know your favorite is ivory.

Purr, 山鉾巡行=floats parade of 後祭=祇園祭 subsequent celebration was held, in sultry weather this time at our ancient capital. I, dad and mom prefer that quiet atmosphere — no stalls serve, nobody walks inebriated. Above is 大船鉾 prepared for 宵々々山 2 years before. Dragon head might be kept safe elsewhere, replaced by a big origami craft.

Purr, this is the day of a month we visit “Arles”. However, it is closed on Tuesdays while mom has an appointment at a dental clinic in the evening. On the other paw of mine, dad gave her a lot of Turkish sweets. Since he is on a diet, almost all of these must be consumed by her alone. Only exception was above mint tea they tried last night. “Wow, this is liquid cough drop,” she commented.
