January 2026 – ♬Salon de la baie d'Hiragata♪　

It was such a pleasant time to get together and sang together. It was again with my dear friend Setsuko.

As elderly women we always have some problems and anxieties, but the time we shared washed away or solved certain amount of problems in wise way and we became happier than before!

Talked about not only family matters, but also about our future life, I made a proposal to live in the same nursry home, but not realistic, laugh??

We talked about the next singing concert here and practiced several pieces of songs we planed to pick up.

Next singing opportunity will be “Early Spring Concert” on the 1st of March.

The second fun gathering with Sarah family. I met Salvatore since November ’24. We sang together O surdato ’nnammurato.

I remember that Ali’s parents wanted to come to Japan and visited us last year. So I was, a kind of, waiting for their visit last year. I asked Ali “Did they come?” It’s so funny they didn’t come because they were so scared to fly over 🛫! We laughed out! It’s not an attitude of modern people. I hope we can see each other here soon! This is my another dream of this year!

The cultural difference between French, Italian and Japanese on how to define “the first week of XXX”! So interesting!! It was possible to do research as I had many friends.
