Safari park

 In June 25^th, my friends and I went to safari park in Yamaguchi. It was first experience in my life.

We went to Safari Land. We can enter by our own car, not only safari park’s bus. So, we entered our car. We saw many animals without fence, but we were prohibited open the window to see animals. We saw animals through the window. However, it was enough. We felt enough thrill! We saw elephant, water buffalo, zebra, bison, cheetah, tiger, lion and so on. Lion was cool, but almost of them lay down. Tiger was so cool! It was my favorite animal in that park!

After that, we got down car and saw the animals like a zoo. We saw white tiger! It was so cool and beautiful. Moreover, we saw lesser panda, it was so pretty! It looks like stuffed animal. We played with common squirrel monkey. It was so fun.

 I like animals, so safari park was very fun!

Akiyoshi-dou

 In June 25^th, my friends and I went to Akiyoshi-dou (Shuho-dou). It is limestone cavern. I have been to there when I was 12 years old, but I can’t remember clearly about that. So, I was so excited.

 We entered the cavern by elevator. It was not the front entrance, so we walked toward both entrance and exit. It was so cold. Temperature of cavern was 17℃. That cavern was like a natural air conditioner. We all wore short sleeves, so we felt cold.

 The view of limestone cavern inside was so mysterious. I like to see the mineral like a amethyst or crystal. So, I excited to see the stalactite! It was so beautiful! The views were beautiful not only inside but also outside the cavern. The entrance of cavern was big and there were so many green leaves and moss. Especially, moss is so beautiful!! I like the stone covered with moss. I think it is Japanese beauty.

 I loved there! It is my favorite healing spot!

Akiyoshi-dai

 In June 25^th, I went to Yamaguchi with my friends by my friend’s car. It was so good sunny morning. First, we went to Akiyoshi-dai. It is karsts. It was so beautiful view!

 We arrived Akiyoshi-dai, we saw green, green, green, green views! Grass was so grown because it was summer! And we could see beautiful green grasses and leaves. There were some flowers. It was so good. We shouted “yahho” against the karsts mountain. We could hear echoes of our voice! It was so fun and excited!

 Akiyoshi-dai’s view was so beautiful. We feel that we were in grassland of Europe. It is so great place! I want to go there once again. Please visit there.

My home at Ehime

 In June 18^th, my superiors and I leave from Osaka to Ehime in order to my homecoming. We went to Ministop, a convenience store, at Ogo in Hyogo. We ate parfait.  It was so good. And then, our car drove on Seto-Big-Bridge!

 We arrived at Ehime just noon. I left my superiors and met my family and my uncle. I met my uncle after an interval of 3 years. We ate dinner together at my home. After that, my family celebrated my birthday. My birthday was June 16^th, so my mother prepared birthday cake and my sister prepared other sweets. I was very happy. That was excellent birthday present! Thank you my family!

Yaki-niku again

 In June 17^th, after finished Children Of Bodom’s live, my superior and I went to Yaki-niku restaurant at Osaka. We did BBQ 7 days ago. We wanted to eat many many meats again.

 All of us drank beer first, but it was mistake :( That beer was so delicious because we sweated so much at live. We wanted to some drink. Beer was good choice. However, we wanted to eat meat so much, but beer made us full soon. We were so stupid.

 Yaki-niku was so delicious, but I will not drink beer next time!

Children Of Bodom’s live

 In June 17^th, my superiors and I went to Osaka to see the Children Of Bodom’s live. In that day, I have the first class at university, so I finished that and we leave Hamada to Osaka soon. It was so busy.

 The live was so excited!! The first band was Amorphis, and second was Children Of Bodom. Both of these bands are Finnish bands. Finland has so many heavy metal bands. Amorphos was so low and deep voice. It’s so cool! Children Of Bodom was so powerful sounds!! Moreover, Alexi’s (vocal) guitar and Janne’s keyboard were so speedy and cool! In addition, their guitar and keyboard were so much getting along with each other!! They were great combination.

 We bought band’s T-shirt and towel of Children Of Bodom. Towel was cool, but T-shirt was little simple. However, it was great memory!

 Children Of Bodom is hard metal band. The genre is “melodic death metal.” So, not everyone likes them. In that reason, I don’t upload them music video. If you interested about them, please search yourself.

BBQ

 In June 11^th, my dinner was BBQ at my superior’s house at Matsue. In that day, after the visiting museum and Baskin Robin’s ice cream, I left from C-Artis’s member, and I met another group. It is my superiors group. They had 6 men, include me, and 5 men is older than me.

 My superior’s house located near the Lake Shinji, so we can see the lake from his house. We saw the night view with eating BBQ. It was so romantic, but we are only men…

 We ate meat, drank beer, ate meat, drank beer…We felt full soon. We started dinner at 7 o’clock and finished at 10 o’clock. We gave up eating very fast. My superior M and I had contest of tennis next day, so we worried about hangover. At morning June 12^th, weather is so bad, but we didn’t have hangover, so we feel fresh. I want to eat BBQ with same members.

Baskin Robin's ice cream

 In June 11^th, I ate Baskin Robin’s ice cream. It was my first visit to that shop in my life. I ordered summer menu, Pine-coco-apple. It included pineapple, coconuts, and apple (maybe). It was very good taste! I liked Baskin Robin’s ice cream. However, I regret one point. My first visiting and eating were with my MALE friend. I wanted to go with FAMALE friend. It’s very sad. I want to go that shop with my girlfriend, now I don’t have such friend, next time!

Museum

 In June 11^th, I went to the Museum of Shimane at Matsue with the member of C-Artis. I saw Eikyu Matsuoka’s gallery as a special display and other permanent display.

 Eikyu Matsuoka’s made a lot of Yamato-e works. Yamato-e is Japanese old painting style. They were painted by China ink or coloring of rock. Their color is paler and lighter than European works. In addition, some Yamato-e works have a blank space. European works don’t have that space. It is big difference between Orient and Europe.

 I like European deep and dark coloring paints. It’s so cool and powerful. When I went to Museum of Louvre, I saw many works of European style. I feel their power directly. In this case that I saw Yamato-e at Matsue, I don’t feel powerful energy from Yamato-e. However, I felt more beauty and thoughtful than European works. Moreover they felt me wabi-sabi as a Japanese soul.

 I like both style, Japanese and European. I only draw cartoon style picture because I had never learn specialty drawing or painting style. I learned how to drawing is always self-education. I want to draw a work like a Japanese style and display at Kai-yu-sai.
