昨日の朝に大阪に帰って来て、あまりの天気の良さにびっくりしました。昨日は一日家で休んで、今日は昼からウチのpolcoと散歩がてら知り合いを尋ねたり、買い物に行ったりして過ごしました。天気も良かったし、彼もなかなか楽しそうでした。日本はパリと違って犬と一緒にお店に入ったりとか電車に乗れなくてちょっと残念。だから今日は僕が自転車乗って、彼はその横を走って着いて来てくれました。

I came back to Osaka yesterday morning, and i was a bit surprised at the weather in Osaka. It was really fine and quite warm. It's really different from Paris. Anyway i had some rest for a whole day yesterday, and today(it was really nice weather too) me and my dog Polco went for a walk to visit our friend in the afternoon. He looked quite happy. It's a bit bitty that we can't go into the shops, cafe and Metro with dogs in Japan though.. So i decided to ride a bicycle and he followed after me.

最近 polcoに会う度に彼が少しずつ老化しているのを感じるんです。口の周りとか足の裏の辺りに白髪が増えて来てたし、以前よりもパワーも落ちてるような気がする。当たり前の事やけどなんかちょっと複雑な気分。パリにいる時は、時々ichatを使って彼の動いてる姿を観る機会があるけど、彼は液晶に写ってる僕を認識してくれないのがちょっと悲しい。やっぱり匂いがしないとダメみたいですね。でも僕が名前を呼ぶとキョロキョロしながら吠えてくれる。ホント一緒に飛行機に乗れれば良いのに。

Everytime i see him in this past few years, i feel his process of aging quite clearly. I can find his gray hair around his mouth and bottoms of his feet, and also his "power" is a bit weaker than before. I know it's normal and there's nothing i can do for it, but i feel a mixture of emotions sometimes. I should spend more time with him whenever i come back to Osaka.

This is my home town. It is quite different sight from Paris. But i like it though. Especially around here, we have (luckily) quite wide streets and many parks and I love to walk around here. You should visit Osaka if you have a chance to visit Japan. We have quite good food and so much advertising displays everywhere in the city center which i really don't like ;-)

今日も3月4日のレヴューをアップできませんでした。すいません。明日は必ず。
I didn't upload the LIVE review of March 4th again.. sorry, I'll do it tomorrow.
