Family Camp in Kannonzaki

Mushroom Cabin

Grilled Noodle for lunch
Field Athletics
BBQ for Dinner
Night Hike
Kannonzaki Lighthouse
Bomb Shelter during WWII
Rocky Shore

My family went to camp in the Kannonzaki Youth Center on September 13 and 14. We stayed at this mushroom cabin. My kids were so glad on seeing the cabin.

We cooked grilled noodle for my lunch, and played at the field athletics. We went to a night hike on a path near the Kannonzaki Shore our BBQ dinner. The Kannonzaki lighthouse, ship lights under the moonlight were so beautiful after.

We hiked around the Kannonzaki, and climbed the light house. It was foggy, but we could see many ships and sailboats.

Horse Beef Restaurant "Takeshi"

I met with old colleagues at a horse beef restaurant last night.

Some people don't eat horse beef, but I like it. I like the raw horse beef especially. Some people don't believe it. they say "Gosh".

I can understand their thought, because I also said "Gosh" when I knew some Chinese people eat dogs and cats... "GOSH!"

BUT I like raw horse beef. It's delicious. It's really!

In addition, I met with the owner who was a famous entertainer. He and the other guy hichhiked from the Strait of Magellan to Alaska about 10 years ago on a popular TV show "Denpa Shonen". He is great.

Once Upon A Time Tokyu Lines

I've lived in Musashi-Kosugi for 12 years. I do not know the history of the Tokyu Line well. This book tell me the history.

There were 3 stations in Musashi-Kosugi about 60 years ago. The stations were "Musashi-Kosugi", "Ground-Mae (in-front-of the ground)" and "Kogyo-Toshi (Factory Town)".

The Shibuya station had only one platform 80 years ago.

There are many, many stories on the Tokyu Line. They are really interesting.

Google Chrome

Google finally launched their own browser "Google Chrome". I read some articles on the performance of the browser, but I suppose Google would have wanted to blow the whistle on the other browsers. Google gets their own platform for Google applications, especially Google Documents.

Google will improve the response time and rich functions on Google Documents. Google must target on Microsoft Office for real.

I became Chrome soon, and I chose my standard browser in 1 minute after installing. It's really quick!!

However, my favorites function on Chrome does not synchronize with Google Bookmark!!! 

2626UDON

I found a Udon noodle shop "Tsuru Tsuru Udon" near the Musashi-Shinjo sation. "Tsuru Tsuru" means smooth and good solid to eat. I tried a simple Udon, but the noodle was boiled too much. The noodle was too soft. I don't recommend the shop.
I am picky about the Udon noodle, because my hometown is a famous place of the Udon noodle.
