Sweat... and a trip to China
Good Morning in many, many languages
GOOD MORNING!! \(゜◇゜●)”
During the last half of last week,
I went to Hangzhou, China, for work.
The state of Hangzhou has the same humidity as Japan
And it was hot every day...Thanks to the whole warm staff,
we had again a wonderful experience,
and we had the privilege to feel a new Scenery.
For the wonderful time, Thank you very much.
In Japan, the situation was serious due to the strong rain.
What was going on? Are you all OK?
Well, this week the skies should be calm.
Or so I hope…
[MONDAY]
(184th day of 2017)
Last Night, I couldn’t sleep well…
I easily fell asleep, but was easily waking up again…
At the start of the Monday, the forecast predicts 35° C
Hot… Again, we will start living the days of daily sweating…
Everybody: is a new Week,
Don’t be defeated by the hot, damp, sweaty weather
Let’s live!!
[TUESDAY]
(185th day of 2017)
A Typhoon has reached Japan,
it was in the News since the Morning.
Here, the skies were still cloudy; when I finished work, as I got off the Train, also scattered rain…
by the time I reached my neighborhood, heavy rainfall…
and because I forgot my Umbrella,
I got, of course, wet to the bone…
I wonder if the typhoon will reach the Kanto area tonight ...
However, today it is scorching hot in Tokyo… Sweat just would not stop…
it was such a day.
WEDNESDAY
(186th day of 2017)
Today, we have a nice weather day.
It is very cloudy and again,
an awfully, scorching hot day.
I played with Ryosuke, for about 30 Min. Badmington and Basketball,
we were both bathed in sweat,
Ryosuke was pointlessly, running around, and merrily sweating.
The Queen was so sweaty that she didn’t move...
This heat outside is so strong
[THURSDAY]
(187th day of 2017)
I woke up at 3:00 am this morning with pain in my left eye, so I applied eye drops…. But because the eye drops stung, I couldn’t go back to sleep, so I decided to watch the tennis game on TV. The game was exciting, making me wide awake, so I stayed up all night…
I am going to Hangzhou, China today… But… believe it or not, the airplane was delayed and we had to wait for about seven hours…
We had to take a bullet train from Shanghai to Hangzhou, but we went to Hangzhou by car; that took two and a half hours since we missed the last train. We arrived at the hotel around 1:30 am…
We couldn’t go see anything in town because it was midnight…
I will do my best tomorrow!
[FRIDAY]
(188th day of 2017)
For the first time in a while, I had a good sleep last night in a hotel bed. The wind was strong and it felt nice this morning here in Hangzhou.
The humidity was high, but the weather was nice with a bit of blue sky between the clouds.
We will have a rehearsal, then film… and we also have interviews today.
I will do my best and not lose to the humidity!
We will perform on the big Stage of the TAOBAO MAKER FESTIVAL, and WORLD ORDER will be the first Japanese artists ever to perform at that event.
The stage and the booth are huge…
I am wondering how many people will be there tomorrow…
I will do my best, even if I am really nervous!!
[SATURDAY]
(189th day of 2017)
I went to bed early last night, and I woke up early this morning as well…Today was the day of the TAOBAO MAKER FESTIVAL. Before I knew it, our performance was over.
We had a wonderful time with a wonderful atmosphere and stage. Thank you to the people in Hangzhou, China who came to see us!!!
After we performed, we went back to the Hotel, and then we went to the West Lake Cultural Landscape of Hangzhou…
There were lots of people who were also enjoying the festival weekend there… it was humid and sweaty hot, even if I was only outside for a bit.
I tried eating lotus seeds for the first time. I didn’t know they are edible…They taste like soft peanuts.It was a short time, but I am glad to have enjoyed the atmosphere of the West Lake Cultural Landscape of Hangzhou. The stage was wonderful,
I am so happy that we had a heartwarming experience at a new place in China.
Thank you so much!!!
For everybody in Japan,
for everybody in China,
I hope you all have a heartwarming weekend…
[SUNDAY]
(190th day of 2017)
It was a traveling day today.
I checked out of the hotel in the morning, and later, I arrived in Japan. The pictures show the water show at the West Lake Cultural Landscape of Hangzhou last night.
There were a lot of people surrounding the lake; it felt like there was a firework festival. I am glad to have visited West Lake, where Mr. Higashino and Mr. Okamura went for a TV show called “Higashino Okamura no Tabizaru Private de Gomennasai”
Even if I only stayed for a little bit.
It was very different from the atmosphere I saw on the DVD of the show; I was surprised at the elegance of the street’s surroundings. It was like Omotesandô.
Please visit Hangzhou if you have a chance…
Before I knew it, the trip to Hangzhou was over; I would like to go there again someday… See you!!!
Let’s have a heartwarming week starting tomorrow!!!
Great work, everyone.
It is the beginning of a new week.
May each day and each hour of the new week
be filled with peace and warmth as usual…
May a gentle wind blow softly into everyone's heart
and bring warm feelings...
It is going to be okay,
it is going to be alright.
The wind has blown.
Let’s live!!!\(゜へ゜●)\”
【Remember to keep kindness and a warm heart.
May a smiling wind blow throughout the world…
It is going to be okay. It will lead to tomorrow!!】
For the new week…
Take care of yourself,
with warm feelings…
Off we go!!!
