Kyoto Sightseeing

Question

I will be sightseeing in Kyoto for a few hours in Japan
I know almost nothing about Kyoto
I heard from a friend that it is so crowded with foreigners that the city buses don't work
I don't have a specific place I want to go, but I would like to go to some famous places where I can say I have seen famous places with the same idea as a foreigner
I am from Kyoto and I would like to go to some places with a few places I can say I have seen. I'm from Kyoto and I'm wondering if anyone who knows Kyoto well can give me some advice on the recommended course and how to get there
I'm planning to go from 11am to 3pm and return by Shinkansen
Thank you very much!

I don't feel like I can say I have much time. Rather than going to see temples
, I would probably go to Nishiki Market to eat and walk around. Well, it's at tourist prices, but I think it's still a good idea because of the
benefit of the weak yen.

There are a lot of them downtown

There are some same-day stores, but there is a long waiting list ！

The dry cleaners next to the post office in Ala Moana Center used to fix clothes, but I'm not sure about now ！ Ask them . 666>

To be exact, it's in the back of the Palama Market near Don Quijote in Ala Moana, right next to the fabric store.

I am trying to sign up and open a Rakuten Mobile account from the U.S. for my temporary return to Japan, but
I cannot download the Rakuten Mobile app from the app store, and I am wondering if I can sign up and open the account from the U.S.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could tell me how to do this.
If anyone has opened a Rakuten Mobile account from the U.S., it would be very helpful if you could tell us how to do so.

Super Kokosei, a volunteer group of high school students, is looking for new volunteers.
One more step is a high school based program to help children who are trying their best to make a new life in America.
We have two programs: a read aloud program to help the children get used to speaking English, and a homework help program to help them do their homework in Japanese.
The children who become our students range in age from middle school elementary school students to junior high school students, and their English levels vary. High school students who are fluent in Japanese can volunteer in the Homework Help Program, while high school students who are fluent in English can volunteer in the Read Aloud Program, whichever suits their style.
By continuing with weekly 30-minute sessions once a week for each week, service hours can also be easily accomplished to reach your goals.
You can also develop leadership skills while volunteering.
If you are interested, please register as a volunteer on our website. We will arrange an information session for you.

I sent a set of green card application documents from the post office about 2 weeks ago.
but I still have not received Notice of Action （ Notice of Receipt ）. One reason may be that the email address I specified for notification was incorrect, but my phone number is definitely registered.
If you have applied so far, how long did it take you to receive the notice of action?
In case you are wondering, I am applying from Illinois.

About electronic pianos available at Costco in Japan

Question

  • ぴあのん

  • 2024/02/17 00:58

I know this is a question for an American forum ？ but how do you say "88 keys, weighted" electronic piano in Japan ？ I would like to buy one from Costco in Japan if possible. I live in the U.S., but this is a gift for a family member in Japan as a celebration.

I understand 88 keys, but is "weighted" the piano touch in Japan? I would like to buy a piano that I can use for a while, so that I don't have to buy a new electronic piano when I start taking piano lessons.

Thank you very much.

Hello.
I am currently using a Roland FRP sold at Costco.
I also play classical piano, so I think I can help you.

First of all, there are many types of electronic pianos.
Weighted means that the keys are weighted like a real piano. This is for people who want to learn piano seriously like a classical piano.
However, the weighted keys may be tiring at first. That being said, the best thing about the weighted electronic piano is that with practice you can express delicate sounds.
So if you want to focus on "playing" the piano, I would recommend weighted.

I don't know much about piano touch, but I think it is the ability to change the volume of the sound depending on how hard you press the keys.

If you are just starting to make music, you don't really need the weighted feature. Instead, we recommend a "keyboard" that can produce sounds from a variety of sources and instruments.
It does not have the weight of an electronic piano, but it specializes in "inserting sounds into a music application," which is essential for music creation. It can produce not only piano sounds, but also drums, guitars, and almost any instrument sound you can think of, and you can put them into applications such as a computer to make music.
However, as I mentioned earlier, it doesn't have the "weight" of a real piano, so it is not suitable for practice.

Most electronic pianos fall into these two categories.

If you want to learn to play the piano, we recommend this electronic piano.
https://www.costco.com/roland-frp-2-acr-digital-piano-bundle.product.4000186636.html
I use it and it has a lot of accessories.

I recommend this keyboard for people who want to make music on a computer or other devices.
https://www.costco.com/casio-ct-x700-premium-portable-keyboard-bundle.product.100779619.html
It has 61 keys, but it has 600 instruments and sound sources. It has 61 keys, but it has 600 instruments and sound sources.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

I know this is a long time ago, but I wonder if you have solved what the Lord wants to know. ？

"I want to give my child a real piano, but due to living restrictions such as a small house or not being able to play loudly enough for the neighborhood, I choose an electronic piano"
There are many families like this in Japan. Perhaps it is because most of the manufacturers of digital pianos are in Japan, and buying one in Japan gives you the most choices.
So, the value of any manufacturer's product is "how close it is to a real piano".

At the moment, only ROLAND and some CASIO products are available on the Japanese Costco web, but if you remove the Costco restriction,
YAMAHA, KAWAI, CASIO, ROLAND, KORG, etc. offer a variety of products.
Each of them explains their keyboard mechanism in detail on their web site, so please try to gather information.

There is no unified expression of "piano touch", but if you read carefully, you will find that\about 100,000 or more have weighted and volume control according to the force of keystroke.
Also, as the price goes up, the material and construction of the keyboard gets closer to a real piano, and the sound source and speakers get better.
By the way, my relative had a KAWAI.

Postscript
However, the better （ and more expensive ） the piano is, the bigger and heavier it is, even though it is a digital piano.
So, if you want to buy a piano as a present, it would be better to check the actual piano before you buy it.

I am having trouble choosing a daycare for my 3 year old.
Stella ， Polaris ， Nishi Honganji Daycare and Higashi Honganji Daycare … I would like to visit each of them. I have looked at the websites of all of these schools, but there are some things that are not clear from those websites, so I would appreciate it if someone who has had children attend these schools could give me some information. I know you are all busy, but I would appreciate it if you could give me some information.

My daughter is starting preschool this August.
I would like to aim for Punahou or Iolani from Kinder now as the preschool does not have Kinder.

I would like to ask those who have recently been accepted to Punahou and Iolani
Which private school or tutor did you use?
Takahashi Juku used to have a high pass rate, but now …
I'm looking for a lot of things.
I would like to know if you have any recommendations or know of any cram schools or tutors with high pass rates. I would appreciate it very much
