SilberCafe -What's New?

Hello, eager "Commenters",
the comment function is back in business, however (and unfortunately) the old comments seem to be lost!
Sorry for that! I also don't know why the function suddenly decided to vanish.....I guess it's one of the main problems
with the "free stuff". Hope this time it'll stay with us a little longer!

Ok now, hit the keys!!

....and it's only ONE  DAY before my wife's birhtday, and I have NO IDEA what to get her!!

 Anyway, "Bon" is over, life is slowly going back to normal, and the summer has finally decided to stay!
My family and I enjoyed a short, but nice one-night-two-days stay on an island "overseas", known around here as Awaji!
That place is so close to Kobe, yet it feels like a tropical island far, far away....how come? The sea seems to be a lot cleaner than Okura-Kaigan or of course, Suma Beach! And they hav...

We had close to full house today: Emily, Shannon, Cassandra, Courtney, Breanna, Kiara & me chatted about various things happening in the world these days, especially the tough times Japan is facing recently - Typhoon-rains and earthquakes coming at the time! Every now and then Mother Earth is complaining about the way the human race is treating her - this year she didn't even grant us a real summer......

 Nevertheless, THIS was really tasty, not sure if sweet or bitter, but a real "adult taste...

Listen - today we had a guest all the way from Wakayama! Her name is Kelsey (originally of course from Scandinavia).
Her friend, Miya from Italy, brought her to our little Cafe.
Ok, sorry I have to go now - going to watch the Inami-Cho Fireworks!







See you!

The quiet summer-time for the Cafe is continuing......today saw 3 people, actually one new boy - David!
But Elizabeth & Emily were very kind to him, so I think he could enjoy a nice, interesting time with us! Welcome David, hope you will be back soon!
Today we talked about Clinton "just flying over to North Korea" and picking up the two captured journalist girls! And that we  are a little disappointed that Japan doesn't do something like that to free the abducted Japanese still in the North!

Ladies & Gentlemen!
It seems like the summer has finally arrived - is it going to be very short? If you "obey" the Japanese calendar, summer is
officially over after "Obon", right? So about another two weeks? Well, I hope not!

So today, we - that is Kiara, Brooklyn, Alicia & me - had some very heavy topics, ranging from stardom one can get thanks to ones' parents' names, to how extremely dirty politicians are! Terrible!! Better don't think about it!

And, by coincidence of course, this topic kind ...

Hi, community!
We had a very quiet, but special day today: It was the first time that the number of BOYS & GIRLS was equal!
Thanks for coming, Edward & Miranda! Edward forgot to bring his mother!

Miranda had a funny story for us, about Air New Zealand's safety video - please check it out yourself:

NAKED CABIN CREW!

Our sweet was this (Yummy Tea Mousse):


And today's phrase was about one of modern times' serious problems the...

The last day of July, and finally (?) the weather was a little bit more "Summer-like" - I wouldn't say it was
really hot, though! Something is REALLY wrongh this year (but actually nice & comfortable).

I enjoyed the company of Gracie, Jade, Madison & Samantha today, an we talked about how not to forget the joy life
but at the same time taking care of ones' health. The "joy of life" in this case stands for NICE, ICE-COLD BEER in the summer!!

Our study phrase was a steep one:

What a nice Tuesday- and thanks to the new seating arrangement, 7 people (that is 6 + me),
were able to see each others' noses all the time!

What a "international" group we were today: Olivia and Miranda from the Latin world, Isabelle from France, Emma from Germany, Madison from England, and Briana all the way from Ireland!

Is it because of so much bad weather, or because  the summer has not arrived yet - I don't know,  but today our main topic was "natural disasters", tornadoes, landslides etc....
