Summer and staycation



I have heard the word staycation from the Pope himself and seems to find the word full of meaning for me.  Although I normallly look forward for a good summer vacation, I also hated the fact the that too much heat makes me weak and could not enjoy the summer.

Before August arrived and the scorging summer heat, I got a terrible headache and just decided to stay home most of the time. Although there are festivals in the center of the city nearby, I decided to stay home. Staycation thats all I need.

Unexpected Gift - Unexpected Gratefulness

Got an early phone call from somebody who needs an interpreter. Somebody will be delivering a baby soon and she need an interpreter.

I was told that a Filipina in the area had been working as interpreter and she told me to give her number to her. I am in contact with this Filipina through Facebook so i send the number to her and just leave them to talk.

In the afternoon, while preparing for my mass, I was informed that somebody is looking for me. She introduced herself and said thank you for the help and handed me a box of goodies.

Unexpected gift - unexpected goodness - unexpectedly delicious


A walk to remember

It was a fine day and I have been looking forward for a long walk in Tanesashi beach beach area here in Hachinohe. I brought onigi and a bottled water with my and drive to the  area. The parking area was already full of cars but i manage to find a good place.

Since I always love the beach I said to myself that I would one day walk the beach area near my place. I walked for an hour taking my time to appreciate the rock formations, the sound the waves and the fresh breeze that the gentle weather gave that day. I reach an area where there is beach for swimming and met some young guys enjoying the winter cold sea. Their laugher is priceless.
