Beer! Beer! Beer! [Life]
連日暑い日が続きますね。
ビール好きにはたまらない季節でもあります。
It's been hot day after day, doesn't it?
However, the person who likes beer very much is dying for a drink during this season.

The Belgian white beer "Hoegaarden (ヒューガルテン)"
今日友人とぶらりと立ち寄ったBARで注文したベルギーの白ビール『Hoegaarden』。 本場ベルギーと同じ巨大グラスに注がれて来たので、思わず感激! |
When I dropped by the BAR with friend today, I found the Belgian white beer, "Hoegaarden". It was served with huge glass the same as Belgian style, I was very impressed!
とはいえ、飲み過ぎには注意しましょう…(笑)。
Anyway, be careful not to drink too much... lol

Special Attraction of Summer / 夏の風物詩 [Life]
昨日は暦でいうところの立秋。そしてもう残暑です。
Yesterday was "Risshū (立秋=the first day of autumn) " by the traditional East Asian calendars (24 solar terms). And we say "Zansho (残暑=the late summer heat)" from that day.

そんな中、夏の風物詩とも言える阿波踊りの光景に出くわしました。
By the way, I ran into the scene of "Awa Odori (阿波踊り=Awa Dance Festival)" which is one of the special attractions of summer in Japan. |
暦の上ではもう秋ですが、本格的な夏はこれからですね。
According to the calendar, although it has been already autumn, the real summer is from now!
