Sandwich

I came back to Japan. It was very nice to stay in the UK. I made something I really wanted to do this time. One of my wish was going to Sandwich. Yes! I made sandwich with my friend in the morning and went to Sandwich to eat sandwich in Sandwich!! Truth or not, the village called Sandwich is said that the place where the sandwich was born. Lord Sandwich, John Montagu asked his servant to bring his slice of meat between two sliced breads because he was too busy to eat his meal when he was enjoying the card game. Even without this funny story, this village is pretty enough to visit. There are many historical buildings. Nice riverside walk. Cosy and Beautiful.

日本に帰国しました。英国滞在は楽しかったです。以前から行きたかった場所に行ってきました。サンドウィチ村です。朝からサンドウィッチ作ってサンドウィッチの駅で食べてきました！嘘かまことか、サンドウィッチ発祥の地と言われています。領主であったサンドウィッチ伯爵がカードゲームの時間が惜しくて手づかみで食べられるものを召使いに作らせたのが始まり、というお話があります。そんなお話抜きにしてもなかなか魅力的な場所でしたよ！古い建物もたくさんあり、川沿いを歩いたり、居心地の良い美しい所でした。写真は川沿いの公園に置かれたベンチ。イギリスでは誰かがベンチを寄付する、ということはよくあるようです。このベンチはサンドウィッチを愛した女の人からのようですね。 

Beautiful English Style Weekend

The most beautiful village in England, Castle Combe. I stayed in this lovely country side last weekend. Many thanks to the family who invited me staying with them. It was amazing and unforgettable weekend.
I will come back to Japan soon. Time is flying so quickly...

Royal Wedding Day

London is heated up for the Royal Wedding today. I tried to get to the Westminster Abby to see something but I could see nothing. Oh, actually saw the mayor of London when he was off after the ceremony!
The photo is my favorite decoration with Union Jacks for the wedding in Regent Street.
It must be the first day of Golden Week Holiday in Japan.

Have lovely holiday.

Easter

I am staying in Scotland this easter.
Whether is nice here as well as London.
Happy Easter!
