Summer is just a few weeks away, yeay ! And summer time means v*a*c*a*t*i*o*N , ice-cream and kakigori and … ghost stories !

Ghost stories ?  Well yes,  since Japanese people remember and pay homage to their ancestors during the hot month of August , not November like the rest of the world. So, expect lots of horror movies and ghost documentaries on the telly soon.

My summer vacation from work starts next week,yipeeee!!

In winter I get up at night
  and dress by yellow candle-light.
  In summer quite the other way
  I have to go to bed by day .

Masarap matulog sa hapon pag summer,eh!

Happy weekend to everyone!

My hubby and most of the working people in Japan had  3 days off last weekend. As usual I was so happy to be spending these precious time with hubby.

SATURDAY – we went bowling with another couple . As usual I had the least score.  Nakakinis , I did my best but my bowl just wont go straight, hrmp.

SUNDAY – stayed in bed most of the day and on the couch the rest of it.

MONDAY – drove round the city , visited some model houses then spent the evening with the old folks. Watched the JAPAN vs. VIETNAM soccer game on the telly. It was a very good game . I’m just disappointed that my favorite footballer is not on the national team this year.

I hoped that everybody had a nice weekend but sadly , a strong earthquake hit some parts of Japan yesterday. We felt the tremor too.  7 people lost their lives and many more were injured. For more of this sad news pls. click here.
