The another side of IAAF World Championships in Athletics Osaka

IFFA GP Osaka has been held in Osaka.

Some athletes say that it will run easily in this track.

But, there are some athletes who abstain by tearing a mascle .

The climate of Osaka might be one of the causes.

The temperature has fallen a little since yesterday, but it is sultry .

Well,the number of volunteers who are related to this rally is about 6000 people how.

Many people work free of charge, and suppot athletes .

Then, bouquets that medallists have,I thought that those are made it in the flower shops.

To tell the truth, high school students in Osaka are making everything one by one.

It is wonderful.

By the way, in Osaka's food, Okonomiyakiお好み焼き,takoyakiたこ焼き,kushikatsu串かつ are famous.

This picture is okonomiyaki made at my home.

People in Osaka like okonomiyaki,and we often make okonomiyaki at home.

But...it seems to be a lot of hated foreigners because externals are bad. hahaha(＾▽＾）

Though it is delicious～

However,Kushikathu串カツ will make it feel that it is delicious for the foreigner.

串かつ：Meat and the vegetable cut small are pierced to the spit.　

I was surprised to know that a lot of foreigners were staying in the あいりん地区AIRIN district.
The staying Japanese might be few though it is certainly cheap. It is staying originally ground for daily workers. It is said that it is not a place where the public peace is good.

It might be much safer than the dangerous neighborhood of the foreign country.

新世界:SHINSEKAI　in　あいりんAILIN area is famous for 串かつKushikatsu food.
In 新世界,there are a lot of small Kushikatsu shops. It's very delicious.
Please drop in there when you come to Osaka, if you can speak Japanese a little.Perhaps,because English language is not understood...

Those are not clean,but　because it is delicious,it crowd with many Japanese tourists recently. Therefore, visiting on weekdays is better.
The shop called 「だるまや：DARUMAYA」 is famous.

Many shops close early, it is little dangerous at night.

Visiting of daytime or an early evening is recommended. We have a possibility of encountering the trouble when drunken men apear.

recent supper

pour sesame's dressing over Boiled sliced pork and shredded vegitables.

[豚(pork)の冷しゃぶ：buta no ｒｅｉｓｈａｂｕ]

with rice balls..

very good!

recent supper

Oil and the compatibility of the eggplant are good.

[茄子（eggplant)の揚げ浸し:nasu no agebitashi]

It soaks to soup after it deep-fries, and it cools it. This is one of my like dishes.

Naturally, we eats with rice.

recent supper

It is after a long time again.

It is hot! It is still hot though it is lingering summer heat.

IAAＦ,OSAKA GP have been held in Osaka.

This moisture and the heat might be enemies of the game for the player. I sympathizes with them.

The appetite falls in summer, and the preparation for meal is also troublesome.

I have a lot of chances to make the menu only of one bowl. haha..(^^;)

This is awful for the foreigner?

But, it is nutritious, and the dish for summer.

It put the bonito, the okra, and the yam parched on rice . And,sprinkle sesame seeds and soup soy sauce.
yam.okra.... we,Japaneze like sticky ingridient.

Spider-Man3

I went to see the movie of "Spider-Man 3" with ｍｙ friend yesterday.
To tell the truth, I am looking at neither the first work nor the second in the movie theater（＾＾；）
I went because ｍｙ friend provoked it with a fan and I seemed to be interesting.


u-mmmm....
It was doubt why he became black Spider-Man. Extraterrestrial life.... I see.
......
I was made to throb a little.
But I think to have a long story before advancing to the main subject.
Ｍｙ hreind said that the second work was better.

By the way, Spider-Man translates it as a 「蜘蛛男＝KUMOOTOKO」 in Japanese.
But, actually, there will be none of the Japanese saying 「Kumootoko」.　
ｈａｈａｈａha!（＾▽＾）

Today's dinner

Today's dinner is Simmered Hijiki and Cabbage and chicken with perilla dressing.

Hijiki is a kind of seaweeds.

It might be seen seem unpalatable food for the foreigner(^^;)

But it's very healthy food.

I eat alone this week.

Dinner only as for one is troublesome and just easily makes it.

World Championships in Athletics, InOsaka! 「大阪世界陸上―OSAKA SEKAIRIKUJOU」

It's close to World Championships in Athletics .

Because it was performed with much effort in Osaka, I wanto go to watch, But I cannot value the finals because after all admission is high.

On last Sunday, an event " the Tokyo street land" was performed.
The place is Marunouchi of Tokyo. Marunouchi is near Tokyo Station. This event was planned by Mr.Tamesue.

They installed a hurdle in the small street high-quality brand shops formed a line.
Everybody seems to have been pleased to be able to watch the figure which ran close.
I sometimes went Marunouchi, too. I may have gone to look when performed when I lived in Tokyo.
Mr.Tamesue is a copper medalist of 400 meter hurdle. His figure which ran without giving it up till the last although being small was very impressive.
This plan was realized for the prize money of the quiz that he got.
He wanted to please us and let us feel the land close.
His service mind to appeal to his spectator for World Championships in Athletics is splendid with a professional.

Today's dinner

I made it brief rice quickly.

Ketchup rice and vegetable soup.

The left photo is a rice cooker.

Because I was troublesome, I cooked rice with cock breast meat and a mushroom in a rice cooker and have mixed them(^^;ゞ

UMEDA Town in Osaka 「梅田」

Hello!　It's fine today, and it's the washday sum.
I took out an electric fan from a closet yesterday. It's aerly summer .But it's 's the arrival of the rainy season before summer. I am unpleasant.

By the way, this is a photo of Umeda town. High-rise buildings and an old houses are mismatch. Umeda is metropolis of Osaka.
However, there is the downtown area which stays in an old building and house in some remote places from a center.
I was brought up in Osaka all the time in Osaka, but did not know that there was such a place.

Japan had the good times of economy very much around 15 years ago. It became in bad times in Japan, and a small company went bankrupt how many, and space buildings increased afterwards. It is such a slightly desolate town here. （They said that a bubble split open.）

But young people begin to open small coffee shops which ten people can't enter ,and general shops recently. It's nice(^^)

Long time no see ～お久しぶりです！（ohisasiburi）～

It is update very after a long absence.

I noticed the comment gotten from the record the day before for the first time today！ If the column of the comment is recorded in a left column like other blogs, I understand soon....
I'm sorry!　I'm glad to write!
Perhaps, because the diary had been left completely for a long time, this comment will not be able to be seen（；＿；） I'm sorry.

My environment was completely replaced now.

Because of the husband's work, we moved in Hyogo from Tokyo.

I became busy for the preparation for the move, and cut the diary for a long time.
We live in Hyogo, There is my house in a very near place from Osaka,therefore we seem to live in Osaka.

Words are Kansai dialect! （＾▽＾）.

Originally because I am from Osaka, I am glad to be able to come back to Kansai area again.
I want to begin a diary at one's own pace again.

It's Sunday. My husband went to take the test of English.

English is tested in Japan for the qualification for the language ability to improve.

A lot of Japanese are not good at English. I am one person in that...（＾＾；）I am not at all good at English..

To tell the truth, it is serious work to make this one diary. I do over again many times because I am difficult even if the translation is used. Because the expression of the word is different, it is necessary to use the translation well. It is very difficult.....（－－；）

By the way, this is an image of a rosary of a park nearby. A rose blooms wonderfully in the middle of May and pleases us.

FIVB VOLLEYBALL

It is unbelievable!
I was excited very much today.
My heart is pounding.

Japan×Serbia and Montenegro

I thought that it would be the best results that a Japanese team got one set.
Perhaps everyone would think so.
I did not think that a team of a clean score lost possibly.
When I advanced to final set, I was excited.
I wanted to praise it even if they lost.
It looked like a supervisor seemed to cry a little, too.
That's great.


A photograph : noted place of colored leaves, Nakatsu Ravine in Hukushima.

a sake warehouse in Kitakata Town 「喜多方の酒蔵」

I stopped at Kitakata after having reached Aizu in Hukushima.
Kitakata is famous for ramen, but is famous as the town where there are a lot of wine cellars (a sake warehouse).

I went in one wine cellar for a souvenir and sampled it a lot（＾ｍ＾）
Local brew is delicious.

Old samurai residences 「武家屋敷―ＢＵＫＥＹＡＳＩＫＩ」

On the third day, it has begun to rain from afternoon.
Thus I dorived to Aizu in Hukushima.

I observed old Samurai House.
A samurai residence is the house where an old samurai lived in.
The samurai family which prospered had a lot of retainers and lived in a big mansion.

A surface of a lake 「湖面―ＫＯＭＥＮ」

Colored leaves are reflected in a surface of a lake clrealy.

Trip to Fukushima the second day. 福島旅行2日目

I went to watch a small marsh nearby in the morning.
Because a photographer knew photography with a place to like, I went there.
It was very beautiful.
Colorful colored leaves were reflected in a surface of a lake and have admired it.

By the way, I convert this diary into English in a free translation site.
Therefore I think that I can sometimes become strange English,(^＿^;)
There is not one word of” colored leaves” in English.
There is one word of "紅葉＝ＫＯＵＹＯＵ" in Japan.
It is said that we go to watch colored leaves to maple-tree viewing.
A Japanese loves watching cherry trees and colored leaves.
It is crowded with tourists in a noted place of autumn Kyoto.

A marsh

A marsh

The marsh 「ＧＯＳＩＫＩ」―「五色沼」

Marsh Goshiki is a name of a meaning such as a marsh of five colors.
Once upon a time it was made by great eruption.
In the area of UraBandai in Hukushima, the complicated topography was made by great eruption.
Because ingredients such as lime minutes are included here, there are beautiful light blue marshes how many it is and can take a walk.
Colored leaves were reflected in a surface of a lake wonderfully.

The mountains 「山々―ＹＡＭＡＹＡＭＡ」

There are some toll roads in Fukushima, but is worth going in the time of colored leaves.
Iｔ was veiled a little, but the mountain which turned red and yellow was very magnificent and was very beautiful.


Kyoto that can watch a temple and a combination of colored leaves is famous, but this scenery is very nice too.

Mt. Bandai 「磐梯山―BANDAISAN」

Because it was fine well, I was able to look Mt. Bandai clearly.
