Good morning!
Good Morning in many, many languages.
GGOOD morning!! ヽ(゜О゜●)ヾ
I apologize for posting late this week.
From San Francisco...I am finally home… I’m home!!
San Francisco was definitely a very very wonderful place.
So much that I would like to breath in that beautiful air once more...
I hope to go there again another time...

[MONDAY]
(200th day of 2016)
With a hot morning is a 100% beaming sun.
I can’t stop sweating… causing me to wipe it down with my handkerchief.
Although the inside of vehicles and cars are very cool and refreshing…
The difference in temperature between the inside and outside...
I walked home from rehearsal without wiping my sweat…I wish I could stay on the train forever...
The first day Monday is a scorching hot one.
[TUESDAY]
(201st day of 2016)
It is another very, very, very hot Tuesday...
Tonight, there is a nice and round moon floating in the night sky…
It feels like it has been a while since I last saw the moon properly...
For sure, I feel healed just by gazing at the moon.
[WEDNESDAY]
(202nd day of 2016)
This morning, I woke to the sound of rain…
and when it stopped,I saw a lot of sparrows, from my bathroom window,
Resting on some housetop antenna…
And this morning, there was an earthquake.
Recently… ever since Sunday, there has been an earthquake daily…
I wonder if Kanto is alright…It worries me.
I’ll be in San Francisco from tomorrow on, So I pray that nothing happens while I am overseas…
This morning, there were many clouds in the sky,
And from the crack among the white clouds, I could see the blue sky…
Today was also hot...

[THURSDAY]
(203rd day of 2016)
A rainy Thursday, tonight I’ll be heading over to San Francisco…
The temperature has lowered today, so it was a cool day. Today again, I bought Ramune with Ryousuke.
And while procrastinating my preparations till the last minute, I wrapped up the handlebar of my bike with bar-tape...
While it was still raining, I headed to the airport…Riding the airplane, the trip was a total of 9 ½ hours…And we went back in time…The feeling of experiencing today, the 21st, all over again…
Landing safely in San Francisco, as we headed outside…It was still light outside although it was already 8pm,
And the air was really fresh…But… cold… compared to Japan’s hot and humid summer,
The air is so fresh to the point of being unbelievable.
Now then… let’s enjoy the fresh air of San Francisco until the live performance...
And be filled with warmth and do my best on-stage!!
[FRIDAY]
(204th day of 2016)
Out of a bed so high, I could get injured if I fell off.
As I opened the window after waking, I felt the chilled air.
The dark morning brings to me a cold San Francisco…Today… we walked up and down the hills of San Francisco, and its air was most definitely delicious
The sky was so vast, with a blue sky today.
Although the afternoon sun was warm...It was breezy, so I didn’t sweat…
What terrific weather
\(●￣ ∇￣)/…
I’ll eat up to collect energy for the live performance of J-POP SUMMIT
Today, I had a large hamburger along with my favorite French Fries…For lunch and dinner...
One day, I wish to live in a house made of French Fries…Just joking…
I assume it would be all oily and would slip down a hill…I hope that the weather will be good tomorrow…
[SATURDAY]
(205th day of 2016)
Today is another sunny day with blue sky.
Today is San Francisco’s
J-POP SUMMIT 2016
It is at the Fort Mason Center, and we took pictures with the guests who had purchased the VIP tickets. I was able to see the many warm smiles and feelings of joy from everyone.
Although it was only a short time, I very much enjoyed it too…It was a moment of warm bliss.
From the bottom of my heart…Thank you very, very much.Today was joyful day where, on top of all the smiles of the guests, The event ground was blessed with San Francisco’s blue sky. So that tomorrow’s live performance with as much warmth, I’ll do my very best, with all I’ve got.
May we all be able to make a beautiful atmosphere together…
[SUNDAY]
(206th day of 2016)
Today, San Francisco’s weather is splendid.
Although the air was cold in the morning, today again, it is a cloudless blue sky.
I can even see Alcatraz clearly, although the Golden Gate Bridge is fogged up.
From early in the morning, we had rehearsal.
And again today, we had the chance to come in touch with the people of San Francisco.
Seeing everyone joyful smile, giving me a lot of energy. There were really so many moment of happiness in San Francisco. Right before the Show, while gazing at the sea,
I saw in the water something big a black coming my way, Closer and closer (゜〇゜●)…Wondering if it was a whale or dolphin… as I kept looking, I finally saw that it was a wild seal, breathing “huff puff huff puff”
as it swam towards me
(゜∇゜●)゛
Although I hurried to take a picture of it… I only got a picture of the sea…
It was a moment of excitement…
Having received energy from that seal, I also received energy from the large audience of people who rooted us on with warm cheers.
To be able to have the wonderful live performance...
and build up together with everyone the beautiful atmosphere, I am really happy.
I would like to go and visit everyone in San Francisco again.
May everyone continue to have their warm smiles until then…
I thank everyone from the depth of my heart.
After the event, we, along with other music artist, got ready to head home that night…
Although it was only a short amount of time, Thank you San Francisco for the wonderful air and wind...
[MONDAY]
(207th day of 2016)
Reaching the San Francisco Airport at 1:55am…
With warm memories in hand…
I fell asleep on the plane...
[TUESDAY]
(208th day of 2016)
And when I noticed, it was already early morning in Japan, 4:30am!
We had flown into the future quite a bit…
The dank feeling I felt when I got off the plane…
And the weather hinting the rainy season ) of Japan…
I could feel… that I had finally returned to Japan.
San Francisco is really a spectacular place.
Thank you, San Francisco.
