2019 12 13

It was cloudy.

There was a visitor to our office. Almost every day we communicate by emails but this was the very first time to see each other. Face-to-face communication is very important.

On my way back I dropped at Yokosukachuo to go to banks. At the supermarket I found special offerings.

They say today is the starting day to prepare the New Years. 

Yesterday there was an announcenent of 25th Kanji of the year. It is 令(rei) of 令和 (reiwa). There were 216,325 entries and there were 30,427 votes for 令 because of the new era 令和 and the new law 法令 for consumer tax and official announcement 発令 of evacuation at the time of natural disaster.
No. 2 was 新 which means new and got 14,850 votes. No.3 was 和 which means harmony and got 10,281 votes. No.4 was 変 which means change and  No.5 was 災 which means disaster.
Last year's Kanji of the year was 災.
