Week 5: Chores and an urgent shopping trip

Sunday, April 20 
I took a little walk in the temple. Cherry blossom flowers were dispersed by wind. I like its blooming season, but I think the best season comes after the flowers are gone.

Earlier this year, I learned how to play Sudoku. I thought it required some calculation, but I found it was much simpler. Now, I enjoy playing easy mode.

I made the first ice cream soda of this year. I used Yuzu soda because I couldn’t find melon soda, but I really should have waited until I found one.

I made a list of things to do last night, and today, after work, I tried to tick them off as much as I could in a two-hour timeframe. Bank (long wait), check. Making photocopies, check. Grocery shopping, check. Châteraisé, check.

A lot of students in their uniforms were loitering near the sightseeing area. I feared they needed to come to this place for their school trip (instead of visiting popular sightseeing place like Kyoto) because of the over-tourism and price surge. Luckily, they’re there for a seminar.

It was a very foggy morning. I couldn’t see anything, but I smelled a sweet scent of violet flowers in the garden.

The Golden Week has started. I had urgent shopping to do in a mall, and there were about ten times more people than usual. But the store I needed to go to was very quiet.
