みなさん、こんにちは。おげんきですか。日本は3連休です。そして、台風が来ています。
大型の台風が九州に近づいているようです。九州にお住まいの方、大丈夫ですか。気をつけてください。
19日の月曜日は敬老の日で、23日の金曜日は秋分の日なので、今週は休みが多いです。九月のこの連休のことをシルバーウイークって言うんですよ。

我が家の高校2年生の息子は、今日は学校の文化祭。今朝は台風の影響で雨足が強かったのですが、朝6時半に家を出て行きました。青春ですね。「文化祭、何をするの」って聞くと、「モグラたたき」って。えー、何それって感じです。人間モグラたたきのようですよ。楽しいことを考えますね。
コロナ前は入場制限もなく自由に学校見学に行けましたが、コロナ禍ということで、インターネットで予約してからの入場のようです。面倒な時代ですね。でも、インターネットでの配信も少しあるみたいなので、わざわざ学校まで足を運ばなくても、文化祭の様子を垣間見ることができます。これは、親にはありがたいですね。

娘は明日が誕生日です。で、雨ですが、原宿まで洋服を買いに行きたいと。日本の小学生はおしゃれが大好きですよ。
なので、大雨の中、私の姉も一緒に原宿にお買い物に行ってきました。私の姉ですから、娘にとってはおばさんですね。たくさん試着して、さんざん悩んで洋服を買いました。
娘との買い物は、私自身も楽しみなんです。あー、こんなのが好きなんだとか、大きくなったなあって思いながら、楽しく買い物しましたよ。原宿は雨でも混んでいました。

みなさんはどんな週末でしたか。

Writing a good CV/resume

Whether you're travelling to the islands or the mountains of Thailand, you're likely to spend at least one night in its capital city on the way. Bangkok might be noisy and polluted but it's also an exciting city with plenty of things to see and do. Why not make it a longer stay?

Where to stay
The Khao San Road was a famous traveller spot even before Leonardo di Caprio's character in the film The Beach stayed there. But it's noisy, not very pretty and not very Thai. For something more authentic, Phra Kanong offers an alternative place to stay, with its fantastic street markets where everyday Bangkok people eat, work and live. It's not as convenient for the main tourist sites, but it has a Skytrain station so you can be at the Grand Palace in 20 minutes.

How to get around
Bangkok's traffic can be a nightmare. Sure, you can easily take a taxi – if you want to spend hours stuck in traffic jams – but there are two much better ways to get around the city. To explore the temples and historical sites, catch an express boat river taxi or a longtail boat along the Chao Phraya river and the canals. For the modern part of the city, the Skytrain is a fast, cheap way to travel from the river to the shopping malls and nightlife of Sukhumvit, and the famous Chatuchak street market.

Where to eat
The simple answer is: everywhere! Thai street food is among the best in the world, and for around $5 you can eat a filling and delicious meal. Some food stands have little plastic seats where you can sit and eat and they cook the same dish over and over, like fried chicken on rice or Pad Thai noodles. Head for Chinatown – Yaowarat Street – and choose whatever looks most interesting from the many excellent Chinese and Thai restaurants and food stands.
