Blog#4 "My Winter Vacation"

Did you have a good time during winter vacation? Maybe all of you had various nice experiences, but I had a little bad winter vacation. I’d like to tell you about my winter vacation.

First, on the last day of the year, I enjoyed with my friends. We gathered on my friend’s house and held a nabe-party. The nabe tasted so delicious. And we greeted New Year. Then, we tried to see first sunrise. First, we thought that the top of mountain is best place to see the sunrise and looked a website. And we decided to go Ogurayama near Arashiyama, which is located at west of Kyoto city. In the website, it says that you can see beautiful sunrise. However, the gate of mountain path closed, so we couldn’t climb the mountain. Therefore, we decided to see sunrise from togetsukyo. But, in fact, the day is cloudy, so we couldn’t see it to begin with. It was not only a sad memory, but also  a good memory.

Second, January 2^nd, I had a dinner with my relative in my uncle’s house. My grandmother, my uncle and my aunt’s family gathered and ate crab-nabe. There were twelve people in all. It is once a year that we gather at same place, so we talked a lot until late at night. The next day, I had a fever. Then I knew 4/5 of my family had same symptoms. It is the truth that I knew a few days after, 9/12 members of the New Year’s party had same symptoms. We maybe had norovirus. I spend hard days.

My winter vacation was not good. So I want to enjoy spring vacation.
