It was fine and hot from the morning.
I went to visit the hotel to pick up the things I asked them to keep.  It was very convenient to have stayed at that hotel  in Shinjuku (新宿) so that it is very close to my office.
After about 10 days, there were many things to do at the office,.  Furthermore I am going to take a day off tomorrow, there were many things to do within the month.

I went to the Narita Airport to see the delegation off.  It was so crowded.  Now is the time of summer vacation.  Therefore so many people go to somewhere for the vacation.The flight was about 40 minutes late.
I ate lunch with a colleague at a Chinese restaurant.  The picture of the menu was different from the one I got.
I was surprised to see one of the students who became a helper at home today.

The 30th London Olympic Games had just begun.
Before the opening ceremony, there were already some soccer games or so.
I like to see the Olympic Games and have been to see something at Barcelona 1992, Atlanta 1996, Nagano 1998, Sydney 2000, Salt Lake 2002, and Athene 2004.
I wanted to go to London this summer but I did not arrange because my friend in London said it is very difficult to get the ticket even living in London.

There was a big fireworks festival in Japan.  The venue is Sumida river (隅田川：umida gawa).  Since I am in Shinjuku (新宿), I hoped to see it too, but I was very busy at night and could not see them.
It was a very hot day and I got sun tan.
