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.

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.

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!
