Erica- thank you very much for coming all the way from Scandinavia!
(Hey? What happend to my Tuesday-Team?)
Erica told me a lot of touching experiences she had when the huge Hanshin Earthquake struck.
One terrible natural disaster I was spared from, because at that time, I was working in London.
Erica "survived" her first private lesson at the Cafe - maybe thanks to this?

Refreshing "Pudding Jelly" - although today was not such a hot day!
By the way - were you all okay with the heavy rain, especially on Sunday?
My Son and me enjoyed a nice night out in Koshien yesterday - which of course would have been
A LOT NICER if we had won!
Today's phrase:
I'M ON A BUDGET ALL YEAR LOOOOONG!
