こんばんは。How’s it going?

For tonight’s blog post, I’ll just leave you with three photos of things that caught my interest while I was downtown this morning.

I hope you had a nice Saturday!

My Selfies

“Selfie with Jawa” Orlando. 2017

So I was thinking… is this my first selfie ever?

Well, I did a little searching, and I found several I’ve taken throughout the years. But for phone selfies, there are only a few:

And for camera selfies, well, there are several from long ago! A short stroll down memory lane… enjoy!

So, the selfie of the Jawa and I may not have been the first, but it is at least the first with my latest phone. 😊

こんばんは。How’s it going? Have a nice Tuesday?

Tonight I will just share three photos that I took today: One of our cat, Anko, looking like a maneki-neko, the second one is the morning sky with tiny moon, and the last one is of our delicious Indian dinner that Mariko made.

And now it is time to practice ひらがな, read, and fall asleep. See you tomorrow!

They grow up so fast

"2004 vs 2016" Redondo Beach, 2004, 2016

こんにちは。How’s it going?

I wanted to share a picture of my son and my niece that shows them in 2004 and then recently last December. 12 years!

We visit the Redondo Beach Pier often when in SoCal, and this scale has been there forever. I am amazed that kids grow up so fast and that time flies by so quickly – it makes me a bit sad because I do miss the days when they were tiny. But I am excited to see what the future holds for them!

I hope you are having a good day.

P.S. In case you are wondering, I did get the kids’ permission to post their photos! 😝
