Old GTTers came to see me for the first time since my sudden illness. We had great time, talking, singing and enjoying Mariko’s soft dance.

No relation to this main theme of the blog, but I would like to collect and enjoy sceneries of England and Scotland!
Happened to find this pic on the FB and picked it as it is amazingly beautiful.

Unexpectedly fun Salon with Sarah and Salvatore-san from Milan! We talked and sang Italian and French songs together. He was such a decent intelligent gentleman and also an Italian who loves music.




Salvsatore’s favorite songs
Pino Villa – Barunissa di carini
ピノ ヴィラ – かわいいバルニッサ
Verso con il quartetto カルテットによる詩


It was so wonderful to talk about many things with my voice teacher . But, I deeply regret that I did not take any photos.
She finnaly came and got into my house. It seemed she was a bit surprised when she saw me in real, maybe was shocked about my appearance and my life in wheelchair. But she quickly understood the situation and accepted the real. Then our conversation was the same as before, about California, America’s problems, life in Kamakura, Jessica Family, etc. etc.





I asked her to sing, but she did not. I undestand she wants to sing more sophisticated atomosphire. She said that “I will come again with Takeuchi-san!” I appreciate her words, and am looking forward to their visit!!
The visit was a quite emotional one, as I felt sad when she left my house.

10/19(土):ロシア語「道」講座-2
久しぶりの本格サロン!ロシア語と歌の会。友人4人の楽しい時間だった。準備で気がもめたり歌が思うように歌えなくて困ったり、でも私の時間を充実させ楽しませる大事なサロンだ。
勉強したい人、歌いたい人、話がしたい人、ちょうど良い組み合わせ。レモンバーベナ茶、ココナツケーキもちょうどよかった。
あ、そうだ。気温が高く、海がきれいでひまわりも咲いていた。

I noticed that there would be no chance to add photos in this category taken by me in the near future, so I am adding some photos from online posts.
J’ai remarqué qu’il n’y aurait aucune possibilité d’ajouter des photos prises par moi dans un avenir proche, j’aimerais donc ajouter quelques photos de publications en ligne.
