Equal Time.

Okay, I took a ride on the Seibu line the other day. You know what stood out? That’s right, I did not hear a single female voice from the rear of the train announcing stations. Not only that, I didn’t see any female drivers. I guess the Chuo line is a bit more progressive than the Seibu line. For what it is worth, I have seen female announcers on the Keio line. This new phenomena of women driving is not a new one.

I am seeing more and more girls doing the pedaling and the guys riding on the back of bikes. I am sorry, but this is just wrong. Call me old-fashioned.

横濱カレーミュージアム is near JR Kannai station.
There are 12 restaurants and 1 souvenir shop.
I used to go there many times, but since my favourite restaurant closed I have not been to.

Now, one of my favourite restaurants came back ! :D

My sister came to my home yesterday , and we went for dinner tonight.

だいわ(Daiwa) is small friendly Yakitori-ya, near JR Yamate Station.
And of course they offer nice yakitori, onigiri, and so on.
We ate chicken, beef, pork and vegetables. Full :)

I just found Wake Cable in Odaiba from my friend’s weblog.
You can hire all stuff you need, even you can take a lesson there.
This is limited event only for one week, from tomorrow to August 24th, 9:00-17:00.

Right; that’s enough: it’s too hot here in Tokyo now.
I’m going to drive out of town this weekend. Any recommendations?
I would like to go somewhere a bit cooler, maybe an area in the countryside with nice walks, forest, waterfalls and so on.
I was looking at Karuizawa:

Strolling in the forest among trees and birds, perhaps in this morning, a new fairly tail is about to be made.

Huh??!…. Anyway would you recommend Karuizawa at this time of year?

Looking for nice tasty Yakiniku restaurant in Yokohama ?
OK, I strongly recommend “つる屋(Tsuru-ya)”

Friendly family runs this restaurant.
They offer Matsuzaka Beef, and you can also taste lots of shochu and awamori there.

Sorry, almost eaten… :)

The final deadline is tomorrow for applying to take part in the next Tokyo Marathon, which takes place on February 18, 2006.

I happened to find this exhibition near Bashamichi station, MinatoMitai Line.
You can sit and listen to the relaxing sound there（BankART1929）.
Want to see more ?

ソファの1つに座って耳を澄ますと、竹のぶつかりあう音が上下左右から聞こえてきます。
いろんなところに音を出す仕掛けがあって、それぞれが各々のタイミングで動いたり止まったり。
インドネシアを少し思い出させる、とてもリラックスできて寝てしまいそうなステキな場所ですよ。

Have you got this already ?

NTT DOCOMO x DOUTOR campaign lasts untill the end of this month, 31th August.

If you are a user of Docomo’s mobile phone and a member of Docomo Premiere Club, you can get an upgrade, size S iced coffee to size M or size M to size L !
I thought about to use this yesterday, but I remembered my nearest Doutor is always too cold for iced drink…
Maybe take away would be better.
