昭和48年会 Party, born in 1973

昨日から旭川へ来てます。
そんな訳で昭和48年生まれの友達、またその友達が集まり飲み会。
メインは小さい頃から剣道をやってた仲間ですが、久し振りに会う顔もあり
楽しかったわ～。
この年になっても集まれる仲間ってのは有り難いもんです。
幹事のあっちゃん有難うごぜーます！写真は夏の写真がよろしく無かったので
女性陣が一番良く映っている写真を選びました。

I have been coming to Asahikawa city since yesterday.

So we had party with friends and their friends, born in 1973 or early 1974.

Mainly they are friends, playing Kendo since kid age, but I also could meet friends, long time no see so it was so good time.  

You know, it is very nice thing for meeting old friends even we have been middle age.

Thank you very much Acchan!

I have chosen a picture in which ladies were taken looks good because summer picture was not good for her.

ANA All Nippon Airways

今日、秋田出張から帰って来ました。
羽田空港で全日空（ANA）の昔のカラーリング飛行機を偶然見つけて撮影！
帰り便でCAに聞いたら１機のみの運行だそうです。
ラッキー！

Today, I was back from business trip of Akita.

Incidentally, I could meet old color ANA airplane at Haneda airport so I took this picture!

On back way in airplane, I asked about this old color airplane to cabin attendant and she said this airplane is running only one.

It was so lucky, I could meet it!

で、機内から見えた景色がこれよ！
絵みたいじゃない？綺麗だったわ～。

And then, I could see this scenery!

Don’t you think it looks painting? But this is real picture.

It was so beautiful and fantastic!

たこ焼き？ "Takoyaki"?

休日はワジが料理当番で今日のお昼はタコ焼きにしようと
思います。ただ、我が家ではタコは使わずに代わりに竹輪を
入れます。今回は、たまたまチーズが有ったのでそれも入れて
みました。
味は勿論ソース、マヨネーズで鰹節を乗せて！
誰が作っても美味しく出来ます。

On holiday, cooking is my job so I want to cook "Takoyaki" today for lunch.
You know, "Tako" meaning is octopus and "Yaki" mean baking.
But in my cooking, I don't use octopus for "Takoyaki".
I will use "Chikuwa", made from fish, instead of octopus.
And today, luckily I had cheese so I will use cheese too.
Taste is Sauce, Mayonnaise and put dried bonito on top of "Takoyaki"!
I think all people can cook it very tasty.

小田原駅 Odawara Station

先週、東京出張の帰りにひかり号に乗ってしまったので、こだま号に
乗り換える為に小田原駅で下車。
こだまが来るまで時間が有ったので、写真と新幹線動画を撮ってみました。

Last week, back way from Tokyo business trip, I took Hikari super express of Shinkansen so I got off at Odawara station for transit to Kodama express.
till Kodama coming, I was free so I took my picture and Shinkansen movie. 

インディアカ2 Indiaca Part2

本日、ヤマハで盛んなスポーツ”インディアカ”の掛川工場大会が
有りました。こんなマイナーなスポーツに社員120人が集まりプレー。
ヤマハ発動機の体育館で開催されたのですが、体育館の横が
ヤマハスタジアムでジュビロ磐田の選手が練習してたので写真を
撮ってみました。
サッカーは特に好きじゃ無いので選手は誰がいたのか解りまへん。

Today, we had Kakegawa factory competition of "Indiaca", very popular sports in Yamaha.
You know, I think this sports is very minor sports but 120 employees came and played.
We used  Yamaha Motor Co, Ltd's gym and next of the gym, Yamaha soccer stadium is located so
luckily, Jubilo Iwata team was training at there so I took picture!  
Actually, I'm not so interested in soccer so I don't know who was playing there today, sorry.

台風15号 Typhoon 15th

台風15号が本日静岡県を直撃。中心気圧が何と940ｈｐaとかなり強力！
国道1号線 バイパスでトラックが強風の為に横倒しとなり渋滞発生し
片側交互通行で通った時に撮った写真です。
スゴイわ台風！

Typhoon 15th directly hit my town Shizuoka prefecture today.
Central pressure of the typhoon is, say, 940hpa, very strong !
One track fell sideways on the national route 1st bypass because of strong wind
so it became single sided mutual passing and started heavy traffic jam.
I took this picture when I passed the fell down truck.
what a great natural phenomena "Typhoon"!

飲み会 in 横浜 Meeting in Yokohama

俺と同じ様に仕事を辞めてトロントに来た奴らよ。
右から竜一郎、ヒロアキ、ユウリ。でもユウリだけは当時学生だったな。
俺以外は3人とも現在関東で働いているんだけど、ユウリは
来月沖縄に転勤らしい。是非遊びに行かねば。
竜ちゃんは今月パパになったばかりで、トロントにいた時は
3人共独身だったけど、今は全員結婚して当時の様な自由はもう
無いはず。そんな訳で久し振りに集まり横浜で飲みました。

When they came to Toronto, they also quitted their job same as me but only Yuuri was 

university student the time.

From right side, members are Ryuichiro, Hiroaki, Yuuri.

Now they are working in Kanto region but Yuuri will move to Okinawa next month.

I have to visit there!

Ryuichiro just became Dad this month.

You know, when they were in Toronto, all of them were single but now they have already got 

marriage so they may have no more freedom like Toronto life.

Anyway, we met and drank in Yokohama after a long separation and it was really good time.
