2011-07-06 2:18 / 会员可以看

hi, thanks for your comments. am happy you still remember me!!!

It's summer!!!! have you make plans for your trip?

the diamond Inc, travel guide book publisher in Japan , has announced the most popular travel destinations for summer 2011 as follows.

Top10 Japanese tourist Destinations

10 Bali Island

9 Taipei

8 New York

7 Honolulu

6 London

5 Balcerona

4 Rome

3 Paris

2 Hawaii

1 SEOUL!!!!!!!!

Busan and Jeju have reached in the top 30. The travel pattern is shifting toward closer destinations because of economic slump?

Since the Korean TV drama sparked, many Japanese started visiting Korea. To tell the truth, I've never been to Korea. am a contrary person.

A pro-Korea boom has been continuing. KARA's 4th single CD "Go Go Summer!" released in Japan,selling more than 100 thousand copies,entered the charts at number 2 in a week. Terrific!!

Well, here's where I want to go this summer. have you been there?

definitely is attracting attention as a new sightseeing spot after broadcasting the commercial. but not sure when I can take summer holidays, am super busy until the end of Aug. enjoy summer vacation, everyone!!

change to another tourism topic.

recently Eric Tsang took HK artists to Japan for 2 weeks to help tourism industry greatly damaged by the earthquake and Fukushima nuke accident. Thanks, Eric!!!! I heard their travel programs would be broadcast on TV in Hong Kong. Let me know how you liked it.

By all means, why don't you seriously consider traveling in Japan this summer?

Hello, AnD friends!!!!!!! Sorry I haven't updated in a very long time. will start again little by little beginning by thanking all for your concern and support for the disaster areas.

as you know Lady Gaga is in Japan for charity concert tour. after MTV concert on Saturday, she will visit Tohoku areas.This year the rainy season set in later than usual in Tohoku. hope the heavy rainfall will not worry victims any more.

Where'd you get those peepers? Gaga takes off her sunglasses as she leaves the MTV concert to show off eye make-up that looks like eyes

in Tokyo it has been so hot and humid that if you don't have an air conditioner, you can't sleep. however, we should save electricity to avoid the threat of major blackout as a result of the crisis at the Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant. TEPCO. Tokyo Electric Power Co. ,begins electricity forecasts, urges power saving steps.The government and many companies are already working on ways to save it.

so what should I do?

hehe, I have planted Goya, traditional summer vegetable of Okinawa, in a planter..

actually Goya is easy to grow at home and creates natural green curtain to block heat. this season it becomes so popular and i couldn't get any seeds so far. at last I happened upon tiny plants at nearby flower shop. I can hardly wait until it bear a lot of Goya, bitter gourds!!

Goya Chanpuru, okinawan stir fry,is my favorite.

It is said eating Goya helps to beat the summer heat

two weeks earlier I planted some veges.

do you know what kind of plants?

answers...

eggplant

and Edamame beans. are growing well though i hardly care for them.

I remember. when i grew blueberries, the birds ate all unripened berries :-p do you have good idea to keep the birds away from my planters?

Hello, everyone!! thanks for praying for Japan. i can hear your voice all around.

the earthquake blocked many roads,and it has made the delivery of relief and medical supplies to the victims extremely difficult.　thats the urgent problem.

but look!　 the sagging, waving Joban expressway for 150meters long repaired within 4 days. I remember with humble gratitude those brave people who, at this very moment,work hard to restore roads and to work to contain nuclear reactor damage in the series of aftershocks and life-threatening condition. thanks!!

My dearest AnD friends,

Thank you so much for caring about me and my family members. really happy to get your messagesof love and concern from all over the world. definetely each of them gave us great power. AnD is really wonderful!!

I have been sticked close to home with my family soon after the earthquake. so went to see my apartment in Shibuya for my first time this afternoon. Its good weather Sunday but there are pleny of seats on train, far fewer people were walking around town.

fortunately there is no damage in my sparsely-furnished room on the 4th floor. all remains at the correct positions and only the fire extinguisher in the kitchen was down. all of the residents are safe, but some on the upper floors seemed to be scared for their lives, when the heavy bookcases or kitchen cabinets were slipped on the floor and then fallen down. the other had fear to see the cracking wall of his room on the 7th floor. The apartment built 5 years ago and I know it has a seismic reliability. however needs to be made more resistant against giant earthquake!

After that, i dropped by Tokyu Hands to get emergency supplies just in case. too late!! the strage racks were empty. i missed spare flashlights, tabletop stove burner and etc. actually the power cut for 3 hours a day starts Monday. but no need to worry cause we are willing to contribute by trying to save electricity. no need to worry about my starvation, cause ive got enough food (except water bottles, sold out!) at nearby supermarket. I really want to deliver them to suffering people...

well, there is something I want to tell you. As you know, the internet and phone lines have been busy, and i rarely use them for those who need the emergency contatcts in affected areas. it took 2 days for my friend from Sendai to confirm her parents safety because of busy line. I'm deeply worried about other AnD friends looking for information on their uncertain families on twitter. give prayers for all safety!!

that means, I am away from AnD, twitter (am lazy twitter though) and others for some time. so dont worry if no reply is received. I'M SAFE. NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS. it should be remembered how much I appreciate you all. look forward to chatting with you soon.

Take care everyone!! Love you all!!

Yours always,

Yoko
