Hello all.

I’d like to share with you my short yet noble tale from this Sakura season.

My parents came to Japan last week

(their second visit to Japan this year,

but this time it was just a layover for their trip to China).

So, because I live in Yokohama,

I got up extra early to go to the airport.

Their flight was delayed(-。－；)

But I just talked to some travelers (from Toronto, Canada)

while I waited

The travelers were worried because they came to Japan with no plans, they didn’t know any hotels

they didn’t have any friends in Japan

and they didn’t speak any Japanese or know anything about Japan

It made me laugh But they laughed too

Anyways, I finally got a call from my mother

But she was crying

The airline told her there wasn’t enough time to see me.

But when my parents bought their tickets,

the airline had said it would be okay

Although I was upset

I didn’t want my parents to be upset

so I said,

“Don’t worry about me. Go to China and enjoy your trip!”

I decided to help the Canadian travelers instead.

I showed them the train to Tokyo, I found them a hotel,

and I taught them about the Tokyo train system,

the popular tourist areas,

and a few useful Japanese words to help them.

Then I went to work.

Maybe I couldn’t see my parents,

but I was able to do something good

By the way, please come to our indyfolder picnic
