2010-2011

The last day of the year, I went to Minamata city which my grandparents live in with my family. We start there at about three o’clock, but we arrived there at about seven o’clock! We usually go there for about two hours by car, but this time, it took to go there for about four hours! The reason why it took so much time was snow! Since the previous day, it began to snow. And we unusually had much snow. We usually go there through an expressway. But we couldn’t use an expressway to Yatsushiro interchange. It also took thirty minutes to go down from an expressway. After that, we caught in a traffic jam. So, it took to go there for about four hours!
We arrived there with difficulty, and we ate sukiyaki with my family and my grandparents while we watched the Red and White singing contest. I really like sukiyaki which my grandmother made! It’s very delicious!
On New Year’s Day, my two cousins and their parents came to the house of our grandparents. My cousins are brothers. An older brother is the same age I am. He is very clever, handsome, kind and perfect! I’m proud of him! And he will be a company employee of a famous company this spring. A younger brother is also superior and good at drawing pictures. And their parents are so cheerful and energetic. They are very happy family. We ate traditional Japanese food prepared in advance for consumption during the first three days of the New Year and containing various specified ingredients and soup containing mochi vegetables and other ingredients, popular at the New Year together. The mochi were made by my grandmother, so of course they are so good! We had special time there!
