Sugar Ray's 1999 CD. I hadn't listened to this album for a long time, and suddenly I wanted to listen. It still sounds good.

ボーカルのマークが結構カッコよくて好きだった。

The Grand Canal Walk

It was cold, but somehow refreshening. Discovered that some people are living on the boats.

往復4キロでヘトヘトなったけど。

La Boulangerie, Rialto

This bakery near St. James's Hospital does really nice cakes. It's 2.5 euro each, but if you buy 3, it's 6 euro. Every time I have to go to the hospital, I go there to cheer me up.

Oven Glove

Made an oven glove with a fabric with Nijntje (Miffy) images I had brought from Japan. Even though Miffy is a Dutch picture book character, it's very popular in Japan.

お揃いで色々作るつもりだったけど布地が足りなかった。

Rainbow

Between the storms...

人生晴れたり曇ったり。そしてその合間には虹。

Blur CD

It was a free gift with The Sunday Times on 22nd November 2009. Their live music sounds more like a 'Rock Band' rather than a 'Pop Band'.

既にebayでは売りに出されているようだ...。

Knitting Club

Formed a Knitting Club with 2 of my husband's female colleagues. We gathered in a house in Blackrock as our club's first activities. I had been enjoying knitting and crocheting in a self-complacency way, but it was such an inspiration to see other people knit/crochet a lot better. I have to improve my skill. There's a lot to go....

Photo: Beautiful doily made by my husband's Lithuanian colleague. I wish I could make something like this....

リトアニアンAさんは多趣味で器用、もう１人のアイリッシュMさんはオシャレでキュート。
お話していると色々と勉強になります。

Departures

Went to see a Japanese film called 'Departures' which won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film at the 2009 Oscars. It was a lovely film and everybody was crying.

音楽も良かった。久石譲（海外で上映される映画の音楽はこの人ばかりか？）。

Walk with the Dog on a Sunny Day (but Not Today)

It's such a pleasure to walk with our dog on a sunny day in Ireland. One of the lovely aspects of living in Ireland

でも今日は大雨大風大嵐。

Martello Tower in Monkstown

I lived in Monkstown from 1995 to 2000. It is a lovely place.

宝くじでも当たらなきゃこの周辺に住むのは無理。

Rainbow

One of the (few) advantages of living in a place where the weather is wet & unpredictable.

虹は珍しくない。

Top of Ticknock Hill

Especially with our dog on a beautiful sunny day.

TV塔がある。背後にはダブリン湾。

Cosmos

I love cosmos.

コスモス好き
