Senzai Ichigu (A rare opportunity the chance of a lifetime)

I am on a summer vacation in Okayama for 10 days.
One thing missing is a mobile, I had left it in my apartment room in Tokyo.

Event though I noticed I didn't carry my iPhone 6 just after a few minutes later I    took a taxi, I didn't want to tell to a taxi driver immediatly because I didn't have much time for a flight  and there were basically one ways around my apartment and I had no idea how it would have taken to go back.


So I tried to quickly scan the damages of not having a mobile.
I had Kindle, MacBook, Wifi, schedule and notebook...well maybe it's ok without a phone.

I have spent so much time on the mobile in the regular days.

Not only me, but all friends all people, they are not standing alone but with their mobiles as if they are best friends.
  
So I thought it would have been a rare opportunity the chance of a lifetime to spend time without it.

Am I making excuse my mistake?

Maybe yes, but somehow it's not a problem so far.

Once I start to face at my MacBook, it's surprising and honestly annoying they have made so much updates though it's ok I have enough time.

maybe it was not a coincidence. sometimes I think we need a break from our phones. The world is "out there" not "in there".

I hope you post some pictures, I always like your posts

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.
