Hachimakura


An old friend and a wonderful painter Kiborio organized a one day exhibition at a stationary shop in Kokubunji. It was great to see some friends that I hadn't seen for some years. I exchanged one of my meteorite drawing with this beautiful wooden receiver.

国分寺のハチマクラで一日展示しました。きぼりおさんが参加したみんなにおはなしをききました。そしてこいさくさんのすてきな受信機と作品交換しました。

Sumo


I went to see sumo wrestling in Ryogoku for the first time. Each match is very short and every time there is some chanting and cleaning of the sumo ring. It was surprising entertaining. I could spend a relaxing day there with a picnic. As the day went on the matches became more and more exciting. Very much like a martial art with quick and unpredictable moves.

両国国技館で始めて相撲を観ました。とても迫力がありました。一回のづつ名前を歌ったり、土俵をきれいにしたり形が決まっています。負けると思ったらくるっと早い動きで逆転するところがおもしろいです。

Fluffy blossoms


Last month was the month of cherry blossoms in Tokyo. I took a walk at night time and looked up to see the flowers hanging in the sky.

先月は桜の月でした。夜散歩をして見上げるとふわふわ空に浮いてるいるようでした。
