How did you spend your tanabata (star festival)?
Did you make a wish on the strips of paper(tanzaku) and hang them on bamboo branches?

Yesterday(9th of July) we had Japanese Lesson at Sakura Cafe Ikebukuro.
The theme of this lesson is Greeting in Japanese!

Our Japanese teacher is....Sasaki sensei!!!!

There are 3points when you greet in japanese!
I will review for you~~~!!!
Point1:Hajimemashite!

Point2:Watashi wa(Name)desu.

Point3:Dozo Yoroshiku!!
Easy,isn't it?
By these 3phrases, you can make japanese friends!!
Sasaki teacher always teaches well(^^)
He uses easy japanese so we can understand easily!!
Everybody,let's practice together!

When you ask your partner's name, just say 'Onamae wa?'

All students introduced themselves by using 3phrases. Don't by shy~~~


They learned how to greet in japanese very quickly.
They're exemplary students!
But the most important thing is.....

Smile~~~~~~~!!!!!!!!
If you greet with smiling, it will be much easier to become friends.

After finished Japanese Lesson, we enjoyed Fiesta together.

Dave from Australia is interested in Japanese language a lot.
He talked me about the differences of culture between Japan and Australia.

Handsome Spanish guy Raul played Spanish guitar for us.
All ladies were captivated by his guitar.
One girl said 'He looks like like Richard Gere~~~(*^^*)'

Hi cheese! with Philip from UK.
I was impressed with his laugh by big voice!
Wahahahahaha~~~~!!!!
You also wanna join us, don't you???
Don't worry~~~You have a chance to join every month.

I hope to see you next month(^^)

From 2th-4th July, there was 'Morning glory festival'in Sugamo.

Morning glory is my favorite flower, so I went to Sugamo on Sunday.
During the festival,there were many street stalls and they sold many kinds of food.


We call Morning glory 'Asagao' in japanese.

When I was a child, I used to bring up Morning glory in summer.
Every morning I was happy to see that flower bloomed.
They sold many potted Morning glory on the street.


Unfortunately,I couldn't see flower bloomed because I went there in the afternoon..
Morning glory slept already.
There was Gambare Nippon Asagao,too.Yeah,we'll live strongly like these Asagao...!

Normally,we call Sugamo 'Grandmother's Harajuku',but I think young people and foreigners can also enjoy Sugamo.
The atmosphere is little bit similar to Asakusa.
I went to the temple 'Togenuki Jizo-Son', but on that day, many people were standing in line to polish 'Arai Kannon' by towel.

It is believed like that... If we have pain in our bodies, polish that part of Arai Kannon by towel.After then, we will get well.
If you have a headache, polish the head of Arai Kannon by towel!

Oh...I cannot see Kannon-sama! I had to come next time!
