I went to the hot spring in Ayashi, "Soyogi No Mori/Forest of Breeze".

In Ayashi, the west of Miyagi, there is one hot- spring venue called "Soyogi No Mori/Forest of Breeze". I went to Soyogi No Mori.     In lobby, it puts the goods of "Love Live Superstar". This tying up is very quaint, introducing "Cool Japan". Unfortunately, I didn't buy them.     There is a restaurant in Soyogi No Mori. I ate katsudon and fried gyouza in this place.     The taste of sauce of katsudon and rice mixed very well, and the fried gyouza was very crispy. I could see the view of Ayashi's town from this restaurant.     I love saunas. In Soyogi No Mori, there are two saunas. One is inside of indoors hot springs, called "Bon-Sauna". This was too hot, about 70℃, so I couldn't stay very long. The other is outside in open-air bath, called "Zen Sauna". In Zen Sauna, we can listen the relaxing music, so we can become calm down and stay longer. But this sauna is very hot too. I...

I went to Spa Metsa Sendai/Ryuusenji No Yu.

In Izumi, the north of Sendai city, there is Spa Metsa Sendai/Ryuusenji No Yu, one big spa resort. This venue is acclaimed from Sendai citizen, so I went to it after long time.     This venue has reconstructed very much. The sauna increased to 3 sauna. One is set outside and with herb. The smell was very beautiful, like blossom. Another is dry souna with 90℃ temperture. It was too hot. The other is called as Date Sauna, whose motif is Date Masamune. The room sounds like shshi-odoshi occationally, so it was very unique and made me relaxed.     I love the sauna. It's not bad of sauna in Sunpia no Yu in Rokuchounome, but it's very good to go to saunas in Spa Metza Sendai sometimes. But, it's a bit inaccessible. I have to go to it with the bus from Subway Izumi-Chuo Station for 40 minutes. I can't go to it easily.

What can I do and what should I do?

“It's important for persons to do what they can do from just in front of one, put aside big problem such as destruction of Ozone stream, global warming and so on. Such small power will become eventually the big power to save the Earth by collecting and collecting. I want to say, that you should save yourself, the small existence, before you save the Earth, the big existence. If you can't save even yourself, you can never save the Earth.” (By Matsudaira Katakuriko in Gintama)     I understand that I can't deal the big problem, such as Japanese politics, Japanese economics and so on, by own. In my case too, it's important for me to save myself. So, I've skipped to take the liquor since one month, paid only 500 yen every day to buy and eat, and lost my weight from 90.5kg to 86.2kg. In both my health case and working case, it goes well. But I feel it's insufficient.     I think, I still have what I can do. And I want Japan to become the...
