A camisole dress and a French sleeve dress selling in MUJI are the underwear which is most suitable for summer.

Because a part of armpit is double cloth, sweat does not seep.

Do you know Yu Darvish ? He is no.1 pitcher in japanaese professional baseball. The popularity of Japanese girl is no.1,too.

I went to the stadium to watch his playing. His style is good, and he is handsome, besides. But unfortunately he married with the actress last year.

Probably he will participate in the baseball game of the Beijing Olympics as a Japanese representative. Watch on TV by all means.

I’m a big fan of Isetatsu.
A lot of wonderful hand printed “very Edo taste” Japanese papers with colored figures (chiyogami) are in the tiny shop. these are of course expensive…

and the shop makes cute and useful goods from chiyogami designs.
I recommend handkerchiefs and postcards(^_-)* these are not so high prices & we can use these everyday!

I can’t stop myself when I found the latest one!!

We went to Gotoku-temple. the temple is not so far from Shinjuku or Shibuya, however there’s many trees & flowers ;)
The Gotoku-temple has an opinion this temple is the lucky-cats’ birthplace.

One day over 370 years ago, the feudal lord named Ii passed by this temple ,a cat rised its right hand and act like to say “Please come in!!” he wondered that & went with the cat.

Just after a moment he came into the temple, there comes a thunderstorm!
the lord thought the cat is genius & bring lucky, so he made there to family temple.
Maybe he was a cat lover!!(^_-)* it’s a cute legend, I think.
