Toe Shapes

There are mainly three types of feet, Greek, Egyptian and Square.

Greek Type: The second toe being the longest.
Egyptian Type: The big toe being the longest.
Square Type: Even length toes.


Maybe this is inheritable.
I imagine how those genetics had traveled among people and finally came to me.
It makes me feel affectionate.

足の形は大きく分けて、ギリシャ型、エジプト型、スクエア型と3通りあるそうです。

ギリシャ型:二番目の指が一番長い(私はこれのようです)
エジプト型:親指が一番長い
スクエア型:どの指も大体同じ長さ

これは両親や祖先から引き継いできたものなのでしょうか。
遺伝子が人の中に生きていて、私のところにたどりついた事について考えをめぐらせてみました。
たかが足の形だけどなんだか愛おしさを感じました。

Momoさん、楽しいです。ボクはエジプトかな?足はずぅっと長い間体重を支えてくれる大変なパーツです。大切にしましょう。

Hiking @ Mt. Fuji

Pictures of Mt. Fuji where one of spiritual places in Japan. You can drive to halfway up the mountain. It's about two hours hiking course from there. Many people like to try climbing up Mt. Fuji. It's a popular way that people spend a night at a co ttage and start around 2am to see sun rise at the top, however I have never tried it. R einforcement work is under way as mountain slope is sliding down. I didn't make any effort, instead I just felt autumn there. It was a clear day after rainy days that took off orange osmanthus petals. Fujisan with rainbow Rain cleanses us and brings next season.

Oh Japanese..

I've been reading Hard boiled Wonderland and the End of the World by Haruki Murakami lately. His expressions are soooo good that I can't help making a note while I'm reading. His descriptions are amazing. I read the book on the commuting train and if there's any line that I am impressed, I take out my mobile and text it to my PC e-mail. Thus, I'm busy on the train, especially my commuting hour has been shorted since I moved. I miss long time train trip a bit. My neighbourhood photos. -Japanese- 今村上春樹の『世界の終わりとハードボイルドワンダーランド』を読んでいます。 彼の表現力は素晴らしくてついついメモをとってしまいます。 彼の本は評価が好きな人は大好き、良さが分からない、と分かれますが 私は彼の表現に感動する事が多いです。 通勤電車の中で読んでいて、素敵だ、と思うラインがあると 携帯を取り出し自分のパソコンにメールをしてしまいます。 なので電車でとっても忙しい・・。 引っ越して通勤時間が短くなってしまったので 以前のような長い通勤時間も懐かしい気がします。

Aomori

The northernmost part of Honshu(Main Land). It's about 700km away from Tokyo. Where The lantern festival take place. Where Tsugaru Shamisen originated. 8 hours driving. Easy driving. Food! Pink flowers and shrine. Pink pink pink. Season goes a little later than Tokyo. Plants took over the house. How pretty you are. This mountain called Osorezan , which is one of spiritual places in Japan.
