Go Back to My Hometown

Lastweek, our school had entrance examination, so we had 5days day off.
I can't go back my hometown in winter vacation because of my part time job,
so I went back there inthis day off.

Usually, I went back to my hometown by buses which leave from Umeda station,
but this time, I went bach from Kyoto station.
Because, I had to receive my passport from passport office in Kyoto station.

Until I left Kyoto station at 16:20, I walked around Kyoto station and Porta.

About 3 hours bus trip, I arrived at my hometown.

I told to my mother what I wanted to eat, so she prepared them.
Every night, I ate what I want to eat.

First day, I visited a lot of people because I bought Taiyaki for them.
I gave Taiyaki to them.

second day, I went to TOHO Cinemas Konan with my other.
We watched "Beaty and the Beast" with subtitles.
This movie was very nice!

Third day, I stayed at my home all day.
My mother asked me to cook hamburger steak's ingredients, so I cooked this.
After I ate dinner, I watched "Spirited Away" in Kinyo roadshow.
This movie is one of my best Ghibuli movie, so I was glad to watch it with my family.

Forth day, I visited my aunt's beauty salon to cut my bangs.
After this, my parents picked up me and went to my teacher's home
to deliver rice which my family made.
We delivered it and talked with teacher's mother.
Next, we went to UNIQLO because in this week UNIQLO held Thanks Festival.
We bought many heat tech to prepare for winter.
After this, we went to Okutu hot springs.
The bathroom of my Kyoto's room have a bathtub, but I rarely run hot water into a bathtub
even I want to soak in.
Because of this, I really want to soak in, so I went to hot springs.
It was nice time for me.
Finally, we went back to our grandmother's house to eat Yakiniku together.

Fifth day, I had to go back to Kyoto, so we left our hometown.

Final day, after I came back from university,
we went to Shikichi Shrine to get talisman for our relative who are pregnant woman now.
We wished for her and Yuko sensei.
Next we went to Kyoto station to buy my hand cream.
We ate last dinner in my room.
After this, my parents left Kyoto.

I could spend good time with my family.
To be honest, I want to go back to my hometown in winter vacation,
and really want to meet my relative and make rice cakes together...

Nabe Party

November 11th, I held Nabe psrty with Serie, Momoko, Kasumi, and Maria at my house.
After last class, we went to Kyoto family to buy Nabe stuffs.
We decided to make Tomato-based Nabe.

The Nabe included cabbages, carrots, potatos, onions, and sousages.
It was very nice!!
At last, we made risotto.

In addition to this, Serie, Momoko, amd Maria celebrated KAsumi's and my birthday.

It was wonderful time.
I want to hold parteis like this at least once a month.

Porta is very good place to shopping.
I found  a good store which sells accesaly for all 300yen.
I boght a lot of accessalies.

Yesterday, I went to kawara-machi to buy winter clothes.
It was raining, but I want to buy new clothes, so I went to there by Hankyu.

When I arrived Kawara-machi station, it was no raining.
First, I went to 2nd street which sells old and used clothes.
I was searching some shirts, but there were not good things.

Second, I went to OPA.
This building has a lot of fascinatinf shops, so I looked for new clothes.
There were many cute clothes, however all of them were so expensive.
Therefore I couldn't buy any clothes.

Finally, I went to Mina Kyoto.
This building has LOFT, UNIQLO, and GU.
I bought black and blue knits and other things in UNIQLO.
In addition to this, I boght boyfriend jeans and skinny jeans in GU.
Also, I had been looking for schedule book of 2015,
I found the good book, so I boght it.

Porta and Kawara-machi are very fascinating place for sopping.

She was pleased with our present, so we were very glad to see her happy face.

Last day, we went to bakery to buy our breakfast.
My friend took us to her recommended bakery, Pain de Kaito.
All of breads were good taste.
After we ate, we left our friend at bus station.
We took the bus which reached Okinawa Airport.
We left our baggage at the airport, and we went to Kokusai street.
We stolled around this street and bought a lot of souvenirs.

We went back to the airport and wait for our flight.
However, Okinawa's weather was so bad then, our flight was little derayed.
Finally, we could arrive Okayama about 2 and hulf hours later.



This trip became one of my precious memories.
If possible, I want to visit my friend on spring vacation.
