Tokyo HOTARU:The image of firefly of Tokyo

By emieva7 - Last updated: 月曜日, 5月 7, 2012

There were so many people who admired the beauty of Tokyo HOTARU as well as Tokyo Skytree. It was wonderful. At first,I couldn’t find the place to watch since there were so many people. So I ride on a train which runs over the river. It was also fun.
If you missed the chance to watch yesterday, please come and see next year .
There are so many nice restaurants near by which provide customers very tasty dishes with reasonable price.

OHIGAN vernal equinox day

By emieva7 - Last updated: 火曜日, 3月 20, 2012

My Juzu was presented from my mother. I like the color very much.


It’s vernal equinox day today. Centering around the vernal equinox day are called HIGAN. We visit our family graves to show our respect for our ancestors. Family members are gathered on that day to keep relationships. We have big dinner together.
I attached the picture of my Juzu:Buddhist rosary. When we pray, it’s held in our hands.

a healthful activity

By emieva7 - Last updated: 金曜日, 9月 9, 2011

Jogging , and walking are fun. People enjoy them to concern about their good health condition. When you jog, you don’t need to run fast. If you can talk with friends while jogging, the speed is just right. There is a good running course around imperial palace in Tokyo. http://www.kanko-chiyoda.jp/tabid/1665/Default.aspx

This is my first blog. I’m happy to join the Tenkai-Japan. com.  I’ve found writing blog is fun.I should have begun sooner.Thank you everybody. Thank you.

I’d like to write what is happening in Japan as well as around me. I’m trying to open my heart to learn from other people. I like to try something new.  

 Morning glories are beautiful during the summer.In Japan, they are called ASAGAO which means “morning face”. It is because the flowers last only a single morning. In the afternoon, they lost the vital and close. ASAGAO market is held in IRIYA Tokyo in the early July. Asagao will please our eyes untill the end of summer season.

Morning glories are beautifully blooming.
