The Unhappy New Year

Published by akkoryoshikah under General, Uncategorized

My husband and I suffered from diarrhea and vomiting of epidemic virus from Dec.24 to 30 ,2006.  So we couldn’t see my daughter’s family and couldn’t eat the Christmas,New Year food.  I lost my weight 3Kgs,but I had many wrinkles. This is a bad things.

We quickly went to the hospital ,so our disease  were not so bad.  Anyway , we didn’t eat  and we took some liquid only.

My 2007 started from Jan.5 praying at the Iwashimiju Hachiman shrine.

Travel to Nepal

Published by akkoryoshikah under Traveling, Uncategorized

I traveled to the Kingdom of Nepal from Nov.26 to Dec. 2 with my sister and 17 tour people.

We  flew 6 hours from the Kansai Airport to the Suvarhabhumi Airport in Bangkok which was built in this year.  It is the biggest one in Asia, so we had to walk for 30 minutes to the customs.

It was my birthday on Nov.26 in Bangkok ,so my sister gave me a pretty scarf. Last year on my birthday, I spent in New Zealand.

Next day, we flew to Katmandu”The Capital of Nepal”,for 3 hours.

It is 1400 meters above sea level.  The Nepalese town are located in the basins,therefore, it is as cold as Kyoto.

We moved by bus to Nagarkot ,2100 meters above sea level. There was very cold like the midwinter in Japan. I saw the most beautiful sunrise of the Himalayas. It made me so happy.

We visited the three world heritages which were the old palaces. The oldest one was made of bricks and carving wood built before 400years.

I felt that there is the gap between the rich people and the poor ones.   I’ve never seen such poor ones in Asia.
