Nippon Series
I like baseball.(both play it and watch it) But these days many famous players go and try in MLB. Then I don't watch Japan's baseball games these days. And many TV stations are now not broadcasting baseball games even the game of Giants (the most famous Japanese professional baseball team based in Tokyo: aka Yomiuri Giants).
This year's champion of the Pacific League is Chiba Lotte Marines(千葉ロッテマリーンズ) and champion of the Central League is Chunichi Dragons(中日ドラゴンズ). And the Japan Series will start from tomorrow, but there is one big problem. There are no nation-wide TV stations that will broadcast some games. 1st game will start on Saturday in Nagoya Dome, but I don't have any way to watch it on-time. Also the 2nd game too. But 3rd and 4th game will be broadcasted by nation-wide TV station. 5th game will not broadcasted by nation-wide TV stations. 6th and 7th game will be broadcasted by nation-wide TV station.
Well, 3 of 7 games will not be broadcasted by nation-wide TV stations and that means I cannot watch these 3 games on-time...
I heard this is the first time, that there are no nation-wide TV stations that will broadcast the Japan Series...
Well, I don't like Chunichi Dragons, then I will root for Chiba Lotte Marines.
Thank you.

Mont Blanc
So, it's time for PEPSI's new flavor for limited time in Japan. I tried "Baobab", "Azuki", "Shiso", "White coke" and "Ice cucumber" for this series. Now they made new flavor "Mont Blanc" or I should say "Marron".
I post some articles about PEPSI's new flavor for limited time before and you can check those articles from links below.
"What is Baobab" in June 2010 (PEPSI Baobab)
"PEPSI Azuki" in October 2009 (PEPSI Azuki)
"Pepsi's new taste" in June 2009 (PEPSI Shiso)
"White coke" in October 2008 (PEPSI White)
"Ice cucumber" in June 2007 (PEPSI Ice Cucumber)
Wow, I tried many flavors... But I don't want to try them again.... lol
Anyway, about Mont Blanc. Well, it's not look like pen of course, but it's flavor like mont blanc. In fact, the smell of this one is too sweet and too strong for me... The taste is PEPSI coke.
I think, it was better than I expected, but I don't want to drink it again. I prefer usual one. lol
If you have a chance to try it, you should try it!
Thank you.

Winter begins?
When I came back yesterday, it was really cold. The weather changed so rapidly, Autumn days went away, and now winter came to us!
Yesterday, Japan Meteorological Agency announced that they observed first cold blast in Tokyo. According to them, the first cold blast in October is for the first time in a decade. The highest temperature of today was nearly 15 degrees (Celsius) and tomorrow it will be 11 degrees (Celsius). Wow, I need jacket for winter.
Thank you.

Are they serious?
I didn't know that but I found the article that about crazy project. The article released by Japanese constructor Shimizu corporation in March. Shimizu corporation, Super Collaborative Graduate School(スーパー連携大学院) and Nomura securities started to boost the development of Green float. They are planning to build an environmental island floating on the Equatorial pacific in 2025.
I don't know whether such a futuristic island would be realisable. But if they would realise it, I wanna visit there. (not stay for a long time...)
You can get more information about this project from the link below.
Thank you.

Dear Tokyo Sky Tree
In Tokyo, the new tower building is under construction. "Tokyo Sky Tree" It's located in Sumida, Tokyo. And it will be the world's highest tower building 634m high.
Today, I heard the news that the construction reached the highest point of main tower. I wish I could go there before the construction would be completed, but I couldn't take much time to visit that place yet.
But I accidentally passed around there when I rode the highway with car. I hope I can take photos of Tokyo Sky Tree, not from car soon.
Thank you.
