My last visit for years...

It will be my last visit to my favorite place.

watching these horseys!


hello there!

It wasn't raining so hard as predicted and it made it easy for me to decide to head to Nigawa.
I didn't have the winning ticket at the Takarazuka Kinen (GI) as my favorite Admire Fuji finished 6th, but I was happy enough there was something to shout at. I don't think it will be easy to watch horse racing at either Dubai or Paris, but I might try at least once in the next three years!


stopping by the Osaka terminal before leaving to catch one last view of the city...

and having some tonkatsu!

Important weekend in Osaka...

It was a peaceful night, but that could make the shift work so painful as each time the sand man attacks I had to fight it off!
After returning home quickly, I slept for only about 40 minutes and rushed out to head for Osaka.
It was an important weekend for me and I wanted to do my best to make it a successful one.


Shin Osaka...

I went to meet my parents and they were really happy to see me different as always with a visitor. There's a lot of scary things waiting before us and I'm quite sure I can overcome any difficulties!
