15日は横浜の名所を観光案内、16日は乗馬体験(シャル君に会いたがっていたけどこの日はあいにくクラブがお休みだったので、もと所属していたクラブにお連れしました。)
午後は我家で着物の着付けです。私が若い頃来ていた着物と帯ですが、黄色が大好きということでこれに決まりました。
17日は箱根に一泊しました。海外生活と英語と馬が共通した趣味の友人を誘いました。。
目が痛いような新緑と山の上ホテルのつつじがとてもきれいでした。
If I were asked which month I liked best in Japan, I would definitely answer the month of May. The air is cool and crisp, and the temperature is just perfect, not too cold nor too hot. Everywhere there are new fresh green leaves and many flowers blooming.
The middle of this month, a friend from the Philippines visited Japan for 15 days, and we spent four days together.
I showed her around Yokohama port, had the chance to ride a horse, and wear a kimono. I asked two of my Japanese friends to join us on a trip to Hakone. We had a very great time. These two friends had the opportunity to experience living in Southeast Asia.
We all got along quite well in spite of meeting each other for the first time. Someday, I would like to visit the Philippines but I am quite hesitant because of the hot weather in that country. I am wondering whether I could survive or not.
