June 30, 2007 - rainy days………….. (re-post)

Rainy days in Akita Japan

Woke up to a very sunny and bright morning so I hurriedly did my laundry before
I went to work. And then….this!! Now I have to do it all again tomorrow. Hahh, I
should have watched the weather forecast this morning. Anyway, this is my hubby’s
car, my in-laws house and the lens of my camera. Hubby was off today so I didnt have
to wait a long time for my bus.

teeny-weeny carousel in Akita Japan

I said before that there was no carousel in Akita, I was wrong. Met with a
friend today at a dept. store and I saw this on the 3rd floor. Sad to say.., but only
kids can ride. Not even the children at heart ( like me??…nah !) can.

Visit tanty in Stavanger, Norway. She is a new member of our little dp blog society.

June 28, 2007 - choo….choo… (re-post)

A train running between Akita station ( central ) and Tsuchizaki station in Akita Japan.

That was then, now it is clang clang clang (?) and not a very pleasant sound.
Akita loves the color green. Our mascot ( sugichi ) is green, our buses are green
and so is this train. I’ve been residing here almost 4 years and yet I only took the
train once. There are not so many train stations and I happen to live between
Akita station ( central ) and Tsuchizaki station. Hahh, hope there was a train station near me, buses are slow and more expensive too. By the way train is
” kishya 汽車 ”.

Toilet art in Akita Japan

I like this drawing, how about you!? Saw this hanging on the toilet door of a dvd
shop. It say’s ” keep the toilet clean and no smoking “. Glad that there is an aspiring artist working in this shop. Or else it would be the usual boring reminders. If Im not mistaken, the artist’s name is ” chihiro “. Good work, chihiro!

I hope you visit Nicola in Rheingau, Germany!

June 26, 2007 - his and hers…geta 下駄 (re-post)

Geta, Japanese wooden clogs, in Akita Japan.

Summer is fast approaching. Actually today felt like summer, inside my apartment was 30 deg. C. Went to return some dvd’s and went inside the clothes store which was just next door. Not really wanting to buy anything but trying to look for pics. ( Is it illegal??) I hope not! Shot this with my mobile phone so no one would notice! Anyway, this is geta. Japanese wooden clogs which I find really cute. Comfortable during the hot summer days but there is just one thing……….

they make a lot of noise!!
