I Go to Tokyo on Business

I made a business trip to 'Tokyo Institute of Technology' a few weeks ago.

The Institute is the most prestigious engineering college in Japan.
I attended a new generation lithography conference there.

The college is located near the company I once worked for.

I wanted to go to see an old Japanese style public bath near the company to know if it still is running.

Yes, it was. I took some snap shots of it.

I Go to a Cafe, Tomotina

In the middle of rainy season, I paid a visit to a river side cafe 'Tomotina' with my wife.

The cafe is located near Ohya Stone Park and a local quarry.

The walls of the cafe were apparently made from the stone dug out of the quarry.

They served us delicious vegetable dishes and good smell coffee.

Bell Peppers, Tomatoes and Eggplants Grow on My Balcony

My wife and I have been taking care of vegetables on our home balcony since this year's spring.

The three bell peppers in front of the rabbit figurine were the first ones harvested there.

Though, the size of vegetables cropped home is smaller than that of selling at greengrocers, I want to believe that their taste are better.

Rock-and-Roll Generation Guys Gather at Orion Square

Rock and roll musicians had a live concert at Orion Square the other day.

Many rock 'n' roll fans came to see them.

Some fans were dancing together to the music, and others were drinking and yelling.

They really seemed enjoying the atmosphere of good old days.

The staff of the concert displayed several classic cars next to the venue.

I Go to 'NEPAL KITCHEN'

My wife and I went to a restaurant called 'NEPAL KITCHEN' the other day.

The restaurant's owner and its staff came from Nepal and were living in my city.

The owner spoke fluent Japanese and served delicious Nepalese food.　Especially, the taste of Naan was excellent.
