going home to Niigata

It's been nice, hasn't it?

Here in Tokyo we have had little rain.
It has been nice weather almost for 20 days.

It's been so warm.

I love winter in Tokyo.

When the weather is nice in Tokyo,
that in Niigata is often bad.

13 years have passed since I came to live
in a small apartment in Tokyo.

My base home is in Niigata.

Winter in Niigata is so severe.

I do love Niigata, though.

I have a lot of pleasant memories of my days
in Niigata.

I'm going home to Niigata this Saturday.

Hoping to see you next week.
