Kaii Higashiyama: A Retrospective

I went to Higashiyama's exhibition after work on 15th May.
When I was a student,I went to his museum in Nagano twice,so I was going to memorize his works of art.But there were too many works of art that I have never seen.In addition to ,there were so many people in the exhibition and it was difficult to look his works without people's heads in my sight.
Anyway,His art is wonderful and it reminds me of nature. I didn't have enough time to look everything, so I should have gone there before .I regret that I went at the last minute.

According to website,it will be held again on July in Nagano.
I hope to go again when I go to my hometown.

Big Basin Redwood Trail Run Report

It was held on 27th April.I got up 5:30,and left the Lodge in saratoga about 7:00 with my friend I met at mixi.We reached the park with no problem,but it took more time to park because all runner came here by their cars.In addtion to,it was 10mins before starting when we registered.It was the first time that I started to run without warming and stretching.
Most runners run same course at first so it was so crowed.While I was running,I noticed to have no idea what I should say by English when I wanted to go past someone.So I followed the faster runner to go past someone when I wanted to go past. (After the race,my boyfrind told me "On your left")

Suddenly fall appeared in front of me! it was so beautiful,I couldn't stop taking pictures.
