Tamagawa River

It was very good day.

I didn't want to stay at home.

So, I went cycling.

It was not so hot.

Running by bicycle and cool wind made me comfortable.

I reached a river side.

It's Tamagawa River.

It's flowing between Tokyo and Kanazawa.

On the river side, you can see a great scenery.

There's no building in front of me. 

The great view made me feel free.

This great river used to be polluted seriously.

However, the quality of water has been improved these days. 

There is full of fishery resources.

I want go fishing some day.

family registration

戸籍謄本-

It's simply translated as "a transcript of the family register".

I went to a public service centre in Tsurumi, Yokohama.

I obtained a transcript of the family register for some reason.

It is known that the family registration system exists only in Japan and Taiwan.

It's very strange system, isn't it?

British Radios

I have just started new life with my smartphone since last weekend, as I mentioned before.

Today, I introduce a useful application for English learnres.

This is "British Radios".

You can listen the most popular UK radio stations in one application.

The available radio stations are nearly 60.

And this app is actually free!!!

It runs in the background listening and allows you to do other activities while you listen to the radio.

It could be useful to brash up your listening skill. 

I recommend BBC radio 4, by the way.
