Summer vacation I took a vacation from August 8th to 16th.Many people in Japan take some days off during the “Obon holidays“ I live in Aichi prefectue ,but I went to my friends house in Tokyo and back to my parents house in Gunma. It’s about 400km from Aichi to Gunma. I stooped by a friend’s house in Tokyo on the way,but I was tired because I drove alone. My friend’s house is in Tokyo, but in the countryside, there is beautiful river nearby. I played with my friends children in the river and had a barbecue in the garden. So I could do some summery things. However I forgot to put on sunscreen on my back when I playing in the river. That’s why my back is itchy and the skin has peeled off. After that , at parents house, I had dinner with my family. It’s been eight months since I returned home. Fresh potatoes were sent from my relatives house, so I made croquette and ate it. After a long time, I had a good time with my family.

Holiday with friends I talked to a friend l met 10years ago. I haven’t seen her for half year. Talked about each other’s status. She broke up with her boyfriend at the end of last year. I also broke up with my boyfriend earlier this year. So we talked about each other new lives. We went to sukiyaki yesterday. It’s a restaurant called Kakiyasu. Kakiyasu is a famous meet restaurant in Japan. So I eat Matsuzaka beef. One piece of beef costs 5000yen. I eat three of them. Too expensive. It was a very luxurious day.

My birthday My anniversary is on September 21th. It is my birthday. Last year, I went out for dinner and had a celebration with my family. Someone usually eat cake on own birthday, but I didn't because I don't like sweet food very much. Instead, I drank a lot of alcohol. I think birthday is a very important anniversary because it is a day to thank my parents for giving birth. It's also the day when we get older and feel new and want to do our best this year.

Broken basket goal Last week I went to the park with a friend because I wanted to play basketball. When I went to the park, the basketball goal was broken. Someone must have done a dunk and broke it. We had no choice but to play basketball with a broken goal. I ask my friend, "Are you in the shoot now? A friend tells me, "Isn't the current shoot in?" Although my goal was broken, I was able to communicate with my friends and have a very good time.

Ayers Rock Luckily, there was a vacant seat on the next day's flight. We took great care not to miss the plane. Actually, I was planning to stay at Ayers Rock for two days, but we couldn't stay one day because we missed the plane. We went sightseeing immediately after checking in to the hotel. The champagne I drank while watching the sunset at Ayers Rock was very delicious. Also, I was able to climb Ayers Rock, which has a low probability of climbing. If it is raining or the wind is strong, you will not be allowed to enter. It is said that Aborigines are currently prohibited from entering the area.

Troubled abroad We went to Sydney Airport to go to Ayers Rock. l missed my flight at the Sydney airport. At that time, the response of the ground staff was cold. We called you on the air. Grand staff said, I was told that you shouldn't have noticed. We didn't know what to do after this. What was my checked baggage? Can I take the next flight? I was upset because it was the first time I missed an airplane overseas. I contacted a Japanese travel agency and told them how to deal with it. As a result, I decided to stay at a hotel near the airport that day, and decided to fly to Ayers Rock the next day.

Trouble overseas We went to Sydney Airport to go to Ayers Rock. The flight time had changed, so when I went to the boarding gate at that time, the plane had already started. It seems that the departure time has come earlier than the time informed. We didn't realize that the time had changed. There is only one flight a day from Sydney to Ayers Rock. We couldn't go to Ayers Rock that day.
