SPIRIT's Diary

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...

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.

“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...

In Rokuchounome, the east of Sendai, there is a big public bath, Sunpia No Yu/Sunpia's Hot Spring. I went to Sunpia's Hot Spiring in Thursday's holiday.   There are two saunas in Sunpia's Spring. One is the dry sauna and the other is the sauna with salt. I took only the sauna with salt.     I have atopic disease in my shoulder, so it had big pain when I rubbed salt into my body. But I did it, so my metabolism became vital by becoming perspiring. And temperture in the sauna with salt was about 40℃, so I could enter into it easily.     In Sunpia's Hot Spring, both inside and outside has many bath. The temperature was about 40℃, I could take easily for 30 minutes.     After taking bath, I drunk one bottle of milk, and I stayed a rest area with watching TV. The chair is the reclining seat, so I could fold down the backseat. And I slept over 1 hours. In Sunpia's Hot Spring, I can become relaxed with forgetting the tim...

Now, I'm searching tourism venues of Kyokutei Bakin and Hakkenden, such as Fusehime Rouketsu/Fusehime Caves, the former Takita Castle and so on. But, actually, it's very difficult. Kyokutei Bakin's birth venue is Fukagawa in Tokyo, but the tourism venues of Hakkenden, including Fusehime Rouketsu, is very far from the station. I have to use the taxi much times. Is it that Tateyama is very car-centric society?     Of course, it's accessible for me to go to Tateyama Castle, the castle of Inue Shinbei who is the one of Hakkenshi. But, for me, it's not sufficient of that.     In May, I want to go to Tokyo and Tateyama, the oriented venues of Kyokutei Bakin and Hakkenden. But I have no cash, it's difficult. Should I sell the stock of Kao, or should I postpone the travel by July?

I can't decide about EXPO and olympic, but, greatly, I approve Japanese present policy that Japan will invite more foreigners and become an oriented-tourism country. It's win-win if I get unique information from foreingers and improve English ability by speaking English. But Japanese street is almost written with only Japanese, so many foreigners may be inconvienient. I understand it greatly because I pretend a foreigners not able to read Japanese and walked in Sendai's street.     As foreign language, 1.5 billion people in the world studies English but only 3 million people studies Japanese. Inversely, it will become a lion's share if we can attract foreigners not used to Japanese.     I also want to make our pharmacy be taken from more Inbound tourists and more foreign laborers. But, for it, the view from starting from the small things, I have to make my blog attracted from more foreigners. Anyway, we have to write more English phrase adjace...
