It`s raining in Tokyo today. I think it`s been so long time to have rain this summer. So I felt it`s nice!!

But at the same time, now we are doing renovation and we could not open the window since it`s raining. So the room was very humid and it makes us so tired.

One of our volunteer staff "Ken" is going to NZ next week and it was last day for him to help us our hard work yesterday. We had little party after work last night and all of us felt that we are little bit missing him. He was really working hard with us and having good time together. We really appreciate his work and also friendship!!

We all hope you enjoy your life in NZ from next week Ken!!
Thank you soooo much!!


Our renovation life will be continue for little while...

 It`s super hot and Humid this summer in Tokyo

And we haven`t been able to up date this blog long time since we are doing the renovating the house now in this crazy weather every single day. We are almost dying but we are trying very hard.

We also have some volunteers to help us. We are very appreciate that!  It`s difficult to do this kind of physical work as an volunteer in this weather. 
Thank you so much every one

We hope we can report about the renovation soon here!

I had a wonderful dinner with some YADOYA Guesthouse's guests and some staff in Nakano area yesterday! We made Okonomiyaki and we ate it!


These two girls are from Germany. One of them try to make one, the other guy is from the restaurant, he makes one as simple for us!


LOOK! Can you guess, which one is from the restaurant's staff!? Which one is from us!?


After Okonomiyaki, we also had some patatos and yakisoba! Of course ALL by ourselves!

I went to another festival with the other people, whom also live in YADOYA Guesthouse. This festival is a local festival, more smaller then others. But a little bit crowded there...

From this photo, you can see they had a small stage in the middle.


Should be two more people in this photo, but we took this one after they leave... They are tired, so back to our house... LOOK! We bought some food from the food stand, and some beers from convenience store.

After the festivel, we went to Shinjuku to meet the other guy. We try to find a cheap place for drinking, but really hard to find one... Almost full of people in the Shinjuku's restaurants... In the same time, these guys saw a place with all you can drink... We just go inside, then start to order...


I took the last train with one of them to back home, the other three, I have no idea about the time when they came back... The only one I know is they walk from Shinjuku to our home... haha~

I went to see this festival with 2 guys, whom stay in YADOYA Guesthouse too! Before, I didn't know this festival, I just follow them to this place! It's an amazing festival!

There were lots of groups waiting there, I guess, all the groups should from some organizations, even school... They have their own mark on their clothes. 

I took lots of photos, but not so many I could share with you here... Because they always dance, move a lot....

Belows are two photos from my camera. You can see what's the festival like. What kind of clothes they wear.

19th of July is a holiday in Japan! The special day is for the Sea. When I arrived Odaiba, all the staff were prepare these paper bags. I have no idea about this day and what the festival for,  all the paper bags put together, just looks like some pictures!
 

Some people were dancing Hula-Hula. It's a great show, even the weather was pretty hot!


It's the great night view from Odaiba!


Can you see these lights? Looks like something there right!


Amazing photo! These lights and the great view put in together, I like this one so much!

I went to NHK Studio Park which located in Shibuya area last week. For the entrance fee cost 200 yen. It's a very interesting place!

When you enter the place, they have someone holding the video camera, and you will show on their big screen! The other one person will say something as a reporter. 


After go downstairs, you will see a TV show program area. You can join with them,  it's kind of music show, and they have some special guests come to have a sing. In this area, you cannot take photo! Also, you have to turn off your mobile phone!

You don't need to worry about where you should go to see first! You just need to keep going, then will find the way you should follow!

Below's photo is for the voice recording area, you can do that for the animation and TV drama, most of the choice are in Japanese, only one or two in English... Also can two people do the recording in the same time, it's like a conversation. After you done, you can hear what you said before. Very interesting, right! 


In this area, you can try to be an anchor, After you done, they will give you a small gift.


Domo kun, the brown one, very famouse in NHK!


Yep, it's my trip in NHK Studio Park last week! Nice place, and had lots of fun! After here, you can go Shibuya for shopping or night life. Or, Harajuku would be a good choice too!

 I went to Tokyo DisneySea Park with my friends. I had lots of fun and had a great time! We arrived the TokyoSea Park around 10AM, and we stayed almost 12 hours there. A little bit crazy, but I'm HAPPY!

Before I leave from my home, the weather was not so good, it was a raining day. After we arrive the station which near the Disney area, it just stop raining. And can see the sun in the sky, start to getting HOT...

We were watch the amazing show in front of the Disney's volcano.
Look! Micky and Minnie!


Chip'n Dale, they are dancing!


In the evening time, we just find the other side in the park. But we don't have enough time to check what's this... too bad...


Ohhh, the other important thing is the fireworks show! But I don't have fireworks show's photo... Because, it was a small raining before the show...

If you have the time, I suggest you should go to Tokyo DisneySea. Tokyo DisneyLand is good for children, and Tokyo DisneySea is more better for adlut!

The weather in Tokyo is really HOT these days, the temperature always around 30 degree in the day time. Sometimes with some raining! I don't like this kind of weather so much... Too hot, and too too much raining... 

I was thinking about how less clothes should I wear in this summer time!? And, do I need to buy a pair of raining boots or shoes for the raining season!?  

Anyway, I will watch these days' weather, and make the decision for shopping or not... If it's necessary, I must to buy them, right!?
