Welcome back from above country with an enormous airport, Shin. It was the 1st trip to there for him, brought Mei-Shun a lot of information. “Our national character seems similar to theirs”, he said. All different was weather — his 3-night stay saw thunderstorms every day, we enjoyed fine blue sky. However, rain sometimes gives both such a nice view.
Shin never forgets to bring home souvenirs for Mei-Shun when he goes on a business trip. Above is from our ancient capital city, expecting colorful foliage soon. After breakfast, the wife tried 2 tea flavours; apple in red, Earl Grey in bright orange. Oh, she must hurry, her clock is ticking. A hair salon nearby the station named after our current metropolis is waiting.
It is a bit confusing for Mei-Shun to expect a full moon tonight, instead of 仲秋の名月 yesterday. Her lunar diary explains that the latter may not always be the 15th from astronomical viewpoint, yet attractive enough in clear autumnal sky called the prettiest. All right, it was therefore 十三夜 or the 2nd best seen on Monday. Professor M, a great photographer kindly taught her.
Well, it is for today that Mei-Shun practiced to drive Ms. Moon on weekend. The hospital Dr. A works at is quite nearby, taking 15 minutes from home. By the way, one of her favorite bakeries on the way to there was closed: their regular day off is Mondays, while a notice was found on a shutter taken down. All right, she would treat herself to those delicacies next time.
Shin visited 一ノ関 last week, brought home a lovely little pear made of 久慈琥珀. On the other hand, one of his clients living in Tottori Prefecture kindly sent a box of those real fruits. Mei-Shun loves both of them; the former is for the wife to put on, the latter 新甘泉 above couple enjoy in each mouth. The husband never forgets souvenirs, with sweets on the top of his list.
Mei-Shun read that her favorite wrestler appeared safely on foot to 国技館 where a rikishi meeting was held the other day. Most of his colleagues had thought he would be absent from it, gave him warm welcome. According to 番付表 of next 九月場所 sent from kind 二所ノ関部屋, he falls toward 2nd highest 十両 rank. “My authentic story starts from here”, he told a reporter who visited 高砂 stable.
Mei-Shun read that her favorite rikishi, seriously injured in a July bout, had a successful operation. Another article featured his close friend, opponent on that day received a message saying “don’t worry about me, it happened only on 土俵 ring”. Your family including 富山 supporters, stable master and brothers, colleagues, fans are all ready to welcome you back, Mr. Nice Guy.
Mei-Shun enjoys their chorus at horsey riding clubs both in Tsukuba and 龍ヶ崎, while not so much around home. More of them come out of the ground every 7 years she heard, 2024 might be between peaks. Do you like it, Mr. MATSURI? He might be her best partner to dance right now. After briefly grooming him, she looked up to meet a 6th crescent in light pink above woods.
They say rainy season has gone from Kanto area. Mei-Shun is wondering if it really has, because a slight shower made a lot of dots on futon mats she hung outdoors this morning. Cicadas began to sing anyway, one of whose baby clothes was found at her horsey riding club yesterday. It might foretell that she would be able to dance for the first time of the week with Mr. Loki.
… from yesterday in Kanto area. Mei-Shun, accompanied by sweet Mikan-chan, enjoyed horsey riding today as well, in 龍ヶ崎 morning lesson specifically with Mr. Danone Caesar. Slight shower falls on them, stops for a while to start over and over. By the way, it is lunar June 6th, Shin’s birthday. His wife would like to serve good meals, full of summer vegetables.
