It was fine and very cold.

At night I watched a movie, an animation, and a drama on TV.

The movie was made in France in 2010 and an action movie.

The drama is the final episode of the 26 years long run series and two hours long version. 26 years is very long, but the main actress has been beautiful and not changed so much.

The animation was also a long run series and made originally for the program and two hours version.

To my glad my 194th ebook has been No.1 in the USA, German, and Japan.

It was fine and hot.

I stayed at home all day long and did housework such as cleaning, washing, and ironing.

I took a nap longer than I planned and missed something I was going to do.

I got a message about TV program in the morning and watched it by NHK plus. It was about Mt. Mitake which my 92nd ebook dealt. What a coincidence!

I watched a TV program at night which was about terrifying stories based on the real episodes.

It was cloudy and cold.

In the morning I had a zoom session.

In the afternoon I watched a movie " Nowhere to run" on TV. Japanese title was Body Target. It is quite different, isn't it?

In the evening I went to a coffee shop to meet somebody. I ate  cake set. We enjoyed talking.

There were two new TV dramas started tonight.

It was cloudy and rather cool.

I had meetings today.

I overworked for an hour and came home later than usual.

I watched two NHK programs which I do not have interest usually. One is about French History. The other is about Formula of mathematics. To know things is interesting.

Free promotion of the 45th book was over.I hope many people enjoy.

After the big typhoon No. 18, it was a very beautiful autumn day.  It was rather cool.

After coming home, I went to dentist. 

At night I watched many TV programs while cooking, eating, and taking a bath.  (Yes, we have a TV set in the bathroom!)  I was surprised to know that a 12 years old Pakistani girl has learned so many things through free Internet college courses.  Whenever you are, if you have an Internet access, you can learn many things.  Even if you are a primary school student, you can learn the college level or even higher level.  Isn't that amazing? Some people even got new jobs after finishing free online courses.

The first Sunday of this year.  How did you spend?
I stayed at home.  I watched some TV programs.  In the morning I saw the live of dezomeshiki (出初式).  It is the official first working day ceremony of the Fire Departments.  At night the 52nd NHK's period drama (大河ドラマ: taiga dorama) started.  Its title is "Yae no Sakura (八重の桜)" which literally means Yae's Cherry Blossoms.    It is a story of Yae Yamamoto, later the wife of Jo Niijima (新島襄) who founded the Doshisha (同志社) University.  She is from Aizu, Fukushima (福島県会津).  NHK chose the place to encourage the people who suffered from the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami in 2011.

It was another hot day.  It was fine and I could see the beautiful Mt. Fuji this morning.

Tonight I watched two TV programs broadcast by NHK.  One of them was the interview program asking people when they feel hot.  Japanese summer is very hot and humid, but there are many good summer things, and many people enjoy different things.  For example, only summer Mt. Fuji (3776 m) is open to climbers.  There was a man who climbed Mt. Fuji 1000 times until this summer, so he decided to talk to 1000 people.  For now he has talked to 166 people or so on his way up or down the Mt. Fuji.  There was a couple who had just got married at the top of the Mt. Fuji where there is a shrine.  They decided to marry there.  They said it was hard to climb up there and and they got married therefore it will be difficult to get divorce.  Other people enjoy summer festivals, or bon dances, or firefly, or fireworks festivals.  Some people were lucky to be able to see the fireworks festival from the Tokyo Sky Tree.  90,000 people or so applied but only 500 were invited there.  Therefore they could enjoy watching fireworks from the above of fireworks themselves.  Other people enjoyed watching them from the boat on the river.  I like fireworks festival very much.  They are so beautiful.

The other program was about the Chinese tourists to Japan.  They come to Japan by the cheap package tour, but they were forced to choose optional tours and after all they have to pay more and  it became not cheap.  And  most of such tours provided the non-licensed tour guides or illegal tourist from Taiwan.  Chinese deceive Chinese. That's sad.
