To Our Convenience

Standard

Mei-Shun drove on the highway toward Ibaraki Airport to pick up Shin. We found it the most convenient for trip to Kansai area, either for business or pleasure – no traffic jam, taking just an hour, wide and free parking space. Thanks, Mr. Governor.

Fashionable Flower

Standard

Mei-Shun’s husband Shin sometimes brings home a bouquet, in which orange, meaning Mikan in Japanese, often appears followed by blue and white. It seems any color coordination is available for flowers – we human beings would not look as stylish as this arrangement in these three colors, won’t we?

Kimono Reminds…

Standard

Master Mei-Shu gave Mei-Shun a kimono, beautifully purple-colored. It is just in size of the latter, looks a bit too long for you, Master … it might be the one her eldest sister, Mei-Shu I, wore in her days.

Great Grapes

Standard

Last year’s heavy snow destroyed many greenhouses for fruits and vegetables. On the other hand, outdoor trees were powerful enough to survive, allowed Mei-Shun family to enjoy such beautiful products this autumn as well.

Ta-Dah!

Standard

Ms. Piano jabbed Mei-Shun in the head when she was warming up before dance practice. No pain, but your message is clear. Just 5 minutes communication between us these days – left you alone, making you nearly fade out of the tug cloud. Sorry, my lady. It would be your turn after November 2.

In the Same Boat

Standard

Mei-Shun sent 邦楽発表会 programs to ex-students of Master Mei-Shu. They do not come for lessons these days, yet when somebody in her class performs on the stage, almost every one of them comes together. We learn a lot from their kindness, don’t we?

Reasonable Best

Standard

Mei-Shun rented a space for dance lesson at a nearby community center. For just 300 yen, she occupied 2 rooms removing wooden slide doors to make it stage-sized. Glass windows served as a big mirror. Great place to swing sarashi. Thanks a million to neighbors.
