We had a small trip with our 9-month-old female dog for the first time. Her name is Pino and we call her Pi-chan (P-chan, or just P) We chose to stay at a small hotel that accommodates people travelling with dog. Living in Tokyo means one can live without a car. Public train comes every 3 to 5 minutes. Bus runs very often. Distance between stations are not so far. Hence we do not own our car. We rent a car for the trip to Nasu, Tochigi prefecture, about 150 km north from Tokyo.
It’s been half a year since we started living with Pi-chan, and she is just like our baby because we have no kids. Places such as restaurants, hotels and entertainment facilities that allow dogs enter are limited. Besides that, it was the very first trip for Pi-chan to stay somewhere outside home for long hours, and I picked out places to go and stay very carefully, preparing against what if occasions. What if she vomits in the rent-a-car? We need some extra towels! What if she holds pee or poo because the environment changes? We’d better prepare her toilet! What if she gets hurt? Let’s check out the nearest animal doctor around the place where we will stay! What’s needed to use pet insurance if she has to go see the doctor? Wow! We were fully prepared for the trip so that Pi-chan will have no major problems. As it turned out, she was pretty good without any trouble and she had first outdoor Onsen (hot spring) experience at the hotel. (Don’t worry! Hot spring for human and dog is separated, and we just take some hot water from our place and put it into her place, add some water so that the water temperature becomes suitable for dog.) The outdoor hot spring is located in the forest where we can hear birds singing and mountain streams while bathing. (I think I like hot spring or bathing so much. When I travel inside Japan, I will never choose anywhere without good hot springs.) Pi-chan doesn’t like bathing. She always scares whenever she has to get shampooed. We just wanted her to get used to water and do not scare or get too nervous against grooming. We had a relaxed scheduled trip in Nasu, where we visited a farm or a park, as well as some herb garden and nice restaurants. When we went back to Tokyo, however, capital freeway was jam-packed with cars, cars, cars…While my hubby was frustrated with the traffic, I was playing with taking ugly pictures of Pi-chan on the backseat. |

Do you like to have some kind of characters? I like Rilakkuma, but I’m not a collector. Well I’ve updated a page on “Character Love” at Tokyo Kawaii TV.
Here’s a link. Hope you enjoy it, and I’ll be grateful if you let me hear what you think about “characters”.Â

White Day is a day when boys who received chocolates on Valentine’s Day return candies to the girls. This is an event exactly a month after Valentine’s Day and is popular in Japan and some asian countries, but not in other parts of the world, I guess.
As my husband recieved giri-choco, or chocolate for obligation from his co-worker, I have to go buy something to return to her for him. This sounds so ridiculous, and I don’t like this “obligation” part of the event. I think we just stop this stupid obligation rule (I have no idea who started this but nowadays this is sort of unspoken rule for anyone just follows for smoother relationships at working environment.) and enjoy the ture gift exchanges each other.Between couples, it shold not always be candies, and instead, we may exchange some nice gifts. Hence once Valentine’s Day’s over, department stores started to set White Day corner where they are dealing with cute accessories, jewelry, or something that are appropriate or attractive as White Day gift. Here’s for example, where I found so sweet jewelry from Q-pot. Q-pot is a famous sweets motif accessory brand which has a main store located in Harajuku, and a branch store at Shinjuku Takashimaya as well. These days this confectionery designed items are very popular in Japan, but I think Q-pot is a starter. The jewelry in catalogue look so cute (kawaii), and if my husband is just a boyfriend, I might ask him to buy one for me. |

These days famous anime such as Yatterman or Dragonball are available as live-action film one after another in Japan. Actually many TV dramas are even originally from anime. But I wonder if live-action is any better than original anime. NANA or Death Note, for example, I prefer watching them with anime.
Yatterman live-action film looks like this.
Below is Yatterman original anime version, for your reference.
This is the one I was watching when I was a kid. This anime song just reminds me of my childhood. BTW, Yatterman Gashapon is also cute.
