In a Jackie Chan movie
Good Morning! ヾ(゜∇゜●)ノ″
Good Morning in many, many languages.
A new week has begun.
Last week I left for Hong Kong on a night where the crescent moon has been looking so beautiful.
The streets and also the densely crowded buildings featured in Jackie Chan Movies,
I could feel exactly the atmosphere like that of the movies.
Even though Kowloon City is not longer a hangout for criminals,
The signboards found within Kowloon city, brings back memories of that I have seen from Jackie`s movies.
To those who helped us when we were in Hong Kong.The wonderful smiles from all the staff, Thank you very much.

[MONDAY]
(158th day of 2016)
We departed on early Monday.
Quiet morning, garagara, the sound that came from my luggage as I pulled, heading off to the airport...
We will leave to Hong Kong for work from today.
I wonder if I would be able to feel the same vision as from what I saw from the movies...
Mount Fuji made an unexpected appearance, showing it's face as it was looking up to the plane.
It took about 4.5 hours to Hong Kong, and we were welcomed by a big and beautiful looking airport.
Outside.. was.. ho...hot... Hong Kong is really hot with high humidity level.
The signboards seen along the journey to our hotel, was the word Kowloon.
Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung Kam-bo, Yuen Biao...
I feel so excited as these 3 men came into my mind.
I wonder what kind of scene will I be meeting for tomorrow`s shooting...
[TUESDAY]
(159th day of 2016)
Day 1 Shooting
Today we had to leave our hotel early too.
H..hot...and the humidity level...
Even before the shooting started, we were all dripping in sweat.. and on top of that
with the heat coming from the lights, unstoppable sweat...
The crews, even though they are in short-sleeved
were sweating hard too...
Under such situation, we had our shootings at various places
and day 1 ended successfully as we had a chance to meet Hong Kong Star too.
Tonight we had Genki Sushi for dinner.
Tomorrow is going to be a long day of long shooting hours.
We will do our best!!
[WEDNESDAY]
(160th day of 2016)
It rained so strongly, and the sky shone brightly.
somehow it felt like a squall came early morning
But the sky which could be seen from my room, cleared up immediately.
I wonder if its going to be turn hot today too...
Today, the first part of the shooting was with an adorable granny.
Her smile was really sweet
!95 years old (゜〇゜●;)/″
isn't she full of energy!!
Started from a morning like this...
Time starts to pass...
and by the time it ended, it was already 5am of the following day...
Shooting non-stop makes us feel really insecure,
how will it turn out?...
But I'm glad that everything when well.
The crews were really amazing...
and the shooting ended successfully too.
To everyone, thank you so much for your hard work.
[唔該!!!(゜∇゜●)″(。_ 。●)″] [Thanks!!! (In Cantonese)
That was really good times spent.
Fruit of today`s labor, was a green apple I received this morning.
I had it after I went back to the hotel.
It was really delicious...
[THURSDAY]
(161st. day of 2016)
Since last night...
Because we don't really have much time till checkout
I planned to stay up for the night.
But as I lied on my side, the next moment, before I realized, I had slept for about 30mins to an hour.
My stay in Hong Kong passed by in a blink of an eye,
But I could feel the air of Hong Kong of what was in the Jackie Chan movies, and that made me really happy.
It will be great if i could go Hong Kong for a traveling trip again...
It was past 9 when we arrived back to Japan
Japan still feels pretty cooling.
The air at night..with the crescent moon in the night sky... it's soothing to the mind and heart.
[FRIDAY]
(162th day of 2016)
Today, all I did was to sleep at my own pace, wake up at my own pace,
a day where I just sleep and wake up, lazing around,
a Friday which I didn't do anything...
It has been sometime since I had lettuce salad with fridge-froze pizza.
Today, was just a day I spent the whole day at home.
[SATURDAY]
(163th day of 2016)
This morning, I heated fridge-froze bread in the oven.
and one of the bread was burnt (。_。●)
I haven't had hazelnut toast for sometime and I had one this morning.
Still, as usual, it tasted great.
The sunray was so strong today... seems like its going to be a very hot day...
At dawn, at the rooftop before it turns dark,
Wind was comfortable, the setting sun was puffing (pukapuka) in contrast with the yellow crescent moon.
Hope everyone will have a good weekend...
[SUNDAY]
(164th day of 2016)
Today was pretty cloudy, more than usual.
Sunday`s sky was peaceful.
It will be a new week from tomorrow.
I wonder, how the week of those with we're having the fan-tour next weekend, will turn out.
Hope it will be a great week...
To everyone, you have worked hard for the week.
A brand new week has begun.
Although we have entered the rainy season, I wonder if it IS rainy season now...
I wonder if its going to rain this week...
I hope you guys could spend a new week, just as usual, feeling calm and peaceful everyday, every moment.
I hope the gentle wind will blow softly into your heart.
Things will be fine. Everything will turn out well.
The wind blew.
Lets live!!!\(゜∇゜●)/
【I hope the world will be surrounded with gentle warm smiles...】
【This week too, I hope that one step you make will bring you to tomorrow, to a week of calmness】
Off to a new week...
Bye!!
