I'm all right!

The first snow of the year in Tokyo surprised me.
The snow still remains.

I must be careful when I walk outside.
The road is wet and slippery.

They say it’s too expensive to prepare for only a few
snowfalls in Tokyo.

I'm afraid the abnormal weather in recent years will
cause a lot of snow even in Tokyo.

In Tochio, the snow country in Niigata-Ken, they have
a lot of snow every year.

It's hard to live there but they can't escape from snow.
They have no choice. They have to live in snow.

On the day I came back to Tokyo, two men removed
the snow from the roof of my sister's house.

One of them came with his three sons, junior and senior high school
boys, and showed them how to sweep snow off the roof.

I was surprised to see sidewalks with snow walls on both sides.



I thought to myself that it might be good to be back to Tochio,
where I lived for 18 years, and to spend the rest of my life
peacefully.

Oh, it’s not so easy to live there!
