Colaborative Essay

I collaborated with Yuki. We will introduce about the beautiful sights of illumination in Kumamoto. Take a look at these!

This is Shower Street . 　This place is popular　　　　　　　　especially among young people. The illumination turn on from 17:00 until 22:30.There are pay parkings, so you need a little money. I think there is one of a good dating spot for couple!

This is Kikuyou Veterinary Clinic.In the daytime, it looks like normal house, but in the evening it change its look! It is beautiful illuminated house like an American Christmas. I have never gone there, so I would like to go. I recommend you to go there!

These are Saishunkan Pharmacy Company . We can see its illumination every year, but it will move from there. It is a very big illumination spot. There is Mos Burger in front of it, so you can see it in the Mos. You can see it from 18:00 until 22:00. Don't miss it!

　This is Aso Farm Land . The illumination tunnel is the longest in West Japan. The span of the tunnel is about 200m and it has 3million lights. Last year, I visited there two times to see the Tunnel. It is really beautiful! When you go there, you need to dress warmly, because it is very cold. There is a hot spring in there, so you can take a bath if you want.

Here is DIAMOND CITY CLAIR . This is Clair's Christmas Tree! It is very tall and blue tower. You can enjoy the tree and of course shopping!You can see the tree from the food court. It's a nice view! Clair has held X'mas sale now, so you can buy anything cheaper:)

Special sweets of Kumamoto

There are many kind of special sweets in Kumamoto. How many sweets do you know? I will intrroduce some of them this time.:-)

Jindaiko This sweets is Jindaiko. Most of people who live in Kumamoto know this sweet. This is made by Okasino-Kobai. The taste is very good. This is made of bean paste and mochi. You can buy this sweet at the station and department store. If you present this Jindaiko to people who not live in Kumamoto, they must be happy!

Mushagaeshi

This sweet's name is "Mushagaeshi". Mushagaeshi means wall of the Japanese castle.

You can see the wall at Kumamoto castle. This sweet is my favorite one. The outside is pie and inside is sweet bean paste. It is not so sweet so many people like Mushagaeshi I think. This is very famous as same as Jindaiko!!

Teyaki-Senbei

This is also made by Okashino-Kobai. Senbei is very popular and traditional sweet in Japan. Senbei is popular among old people but there are many kind of Senbei these days. So young people also like this sweet.

Book Review

I read an old book last week. The title is "East Of Eden". The author is John Steinbeck. First,I am going to introduce about himself.





John Ernst Steinbeck (February 27,1902-December 20, 1968)

The story which I've read "East Of Eden" is about a family who live in California. The scene of this story is on the WWI. And the characters are very unique.

BOOK REVIEW

Have you ever read or seen "Shining boy and little Randy" before? This story is about a boy who like animals especially elephant and a little elephant.
The actor is Yuya Yagira. He is very good actor I think.
Do you know why the title is "Shining boy and little Randy"? The title has a sad mean.
Yuya loves animals very much and he and his family decided to have an elephant. But nobody can care the elephant. And Yuya decided to go to Thailand to learn how to care the elephant.
Gradually Yuya can talk with Randy(his pet elephant)!! But one day Yuya had a car accident and he dead.
Randy and other elephants cried. Animals also can feel the emotion! I moved with this story very much.
I recommend this book and movie for you!!!

Famous bridge!

This bridge is very famous in Kumamoto. Do you know the name? It is "Tsujun-kyo".
This bridge was used for rice field . Sometime we can see flashing lile this picture.
This bridge made from many many stones. I think old people was very clever!
