Kids frolic on a mountain of thanks
02/20/2006
Children had a rare chance to play in snow in Kawasaki's Saiwai Ward on Sunday morning after a 72-year-old man trucked in 300 tons of the stuff from the former village of Yamakoshi in Niigata Prefecture. (Takeshi Tokitsu/The Asahi Shimbun)
I found this on the Asahi website front page some weeks back and was pleasantly surprised given that Kawasaki's Saiwai Ward was exactly the place i lived in whilst in Tokyo in 2005. I mean not only is it the same city Kawasaki City which is big anyway, its the same Ward and i think i even recognise the tall buildings behind in the picture, could they be the buildings close to JR Shin-Kawasaki Station?? (This was the station i used most frequently to travel around and also to get to Keio University in Mita campus which is where i went despite my apart being like 15 mins walk to its Hiyoshi Campus BUT i am so glad all the classes were at Mita cos its right in the Tokyo metro area and i got to travel almost daily using the busiest inner Tokyo Yamanote train line circle.How i miss Tokyo life.......戻りたいなあ。。。東京)

kimcafe:あ、先輩だ。。。 でも実は私は交換留学生として慶應で勉強した。日本語を勉強した。普通の授業じゃないでした。So i went on exchange, NOT the normal classes,だから私の日本語はすごく下手なんです。。あと、その日本語article は私書いたものじゃないです。。。ゲイジャパンニュースというサイトのarticleです。。私は翻訳しただけ。。into english....またkimcafeさんもう人のお父さんことしらなかった。。いろんなところ旅行にいったからずっとkimcafeさんは 20、30代の方かもと思ったんだ。。。
