日本へ子供無しで一人で帰るのはきっと20年ぶり。写真では嬉しそうに見えるけど心の中はちょっぴり寂しい。
The last time traveling alone to Japan without kids probably was over twenty years ago. I look happy in the picture, but I was feeling a bit lonely inside.
東京到着。超満員電車で仕事に行ってた頃を思い出す。
Arrived in Tokyo. Remembering the days I used to commute to work in fully packed trains.
こんな時はいつも息子達がスーツケースを持って階段を上がってくれたのに。 重い。。
It was always boys who climbed stairs carrying suitcases. .... so heavy.....
実家の生坂村に戻りました。理輝や姪っ子と楽しい時間。
Back in Ikusaka village, my hometown. Spending time with Riki and my niece.
灰お焼きは美味しい！ Love this special food baked in hot ashes.
父の作ったこのキウイは中が赤。とーーっても甘くって美味しい！
Inside of these kiwis my father grew were red. They were very sweet and tasty.
外に出たら母の畑から晩ご飯の野菜が採れるなんてナイス。
It's so nice to be able to just go outside and pick vegetables for dinner from my mom's field.
手前は大根、その後ろはネギ。Front are Daikon radishes and behind is green onions.
ゴボウを掘ってる。Digging up burdock roots.

姪の娘とランチデート(*^^*) Lunch date with my niece's daughter. (*^^*)
