How many elderly people of Japanese descent are living in LA? We would be happy to be a place of rest and relaxation for the elderly who use the Koryu Hiroba. We think the eligibility is from 65 years old and up.

It took me two hours to pull out the crabgrass. My son says that if we move to a condo, I’ll get bored because I don’t have many friends.

He bravely declared, “I’m really going to mow the lawn…”

＞ "I'm really going to cut it down!"—that's the brave spirit...

It's a "do-or-die" kind of feeling, isn't it? ^^

This morning, I took a yoga class at the City of LA Senior Center and had lunch at the luncheon afterward.

About 80 ～ to 100 people gather at this center for lunch. Given the area, almost everyone is a U.S. citizen, and there are only a handful of people of Asian descent, including my wife and me. As a result, I hear nothing but English around me. There must be quite a few Latino residents here in the SF Valley as well, but for some reason, I don’t hear any Spanish.

The current temperature in SF Valley has soared to 102.5°F (39.2°C).

It’s under the eaves in the backyard, so there’s no direct sunlight.

It’s incredibly “hot” outside.

If I went for a walk or something outside, I might pass out.

Today, here in the San Fernando Valley, where I live, the

high temperature hit the 100°F/38°C mark.

I simply can't stand outside for even 15 minutes.

Those of you who have crossed the ocean to come here to Los Angeles and Japan
are always concerned about something related to your travel between Los Angeles and Japan.

If you have anything to say or questions, please feel free to write.
I'll try to write "something" as well.

Example ：
What means do you use to call when you return to Japan?

Which seat on the plane do you prefer, Aisle or Window, front, back,

Which airline do you think has the best food?

Which mode of transportation do you use to get to the local area?

and so on and so on

I’m a 23-year-old woman, and an 82-year-old man living in Los Angeles who goes by the katakana name “Edokko.” Since 2009, I’ve been visiting Shikoku roughly once a year, covering about a quarter of the pilgrimage route each time. However, as I’ve entered my late elderly years and am starting to show some signs of dementia, my wife has firmly told me, “Don’t go to Shikoku anymore.”

Now that I can’t go to Shikoku anymore, I miss it even more and am agonizing over how much I want to walk the pilgrimage route. To make up for it, I watch the 23-year-old woman’s YouTube videos and imagine I’m walking through Shikoku myself. Please keep making interesting videos in the future...

[Pilgrimage] 23-Year-Old Woman’s Solo Pilgrimage: Days 30 & 31 ｜ The Iyo Pilgrimage Trail: Where the Stunning Views from the Summit Keep Me Going, Whether It’s an Uphill Pass or a Ladder on a Sheer Cliff

https:// www.youtube.com/watch?v=clC1UPMtuZA&t=307s

Even on a walking pilgrimage in Shikoku, if the weather is clear, you’ll find yourself hiking through mountains with scenery this beautiful.

I’ve walked this section about twice myself.

Along the way, there are spots where the original pilgrimage path is blocked by a landslide, so you have to climb a ladder attached to the slope to take a detour. Well, it only takes about 15 minutes to get to the top, so it’s no big deal.

＞ I’ve walked this section about twice myself.

This means I’ve completed the pilgrimage route around Shikoku twice; walking the entire circuit is about 1,200 km. If you divide that by four, it works out to walking 300 km once a year.

Once you get hooked on this “walking pilgrimage,” you’ll want to return to Japan—and to Shikoku—over and over again.

Well, here in LA, the weather is warm year-round and it rains only a handful of times, so it’s very comfortable to live here—but on the other hand, I sometimes find myself missing Japan with its distinct four seasons. That’s why I’ve started traveling to Japan primarily to do the “Shikoku Pilgrimage.”

Cosmos flowers are blooming Along the pilgrimage path I was walking alone
The autumn sun is shining
Now gone is the image of Kobo Daishi

I posted this because I’d like to hear from owners who rent out their rooms through a room-sharing arrangement
.

Regarding personal belongings, furniture, or appliances
—and how to handle situations where it’s unclear who caused the damage when
several people are living together—we’d like to hear your advice as we’re planning to start renting out a room ourselves
and want to learn about various issues, such as disputes between tenants
.
Thank you in advance 🤲

Since I’m getting older, I’d like to leave a will for my sons.
What’s the typical fee for a consultation? ？
Is there a system like the one in Japan where the first 30 minutes are free? ？

I live in Hawaii, but since things vary greatly depending on the lawyer and the time period,

it’s wise to ask an AI. For details like what they’re like or how old they look, I think the experiences of people who’ve recently used a lawyer would be helpful.

Why aren’t there any reviews of Tsumiki Kindergarten posted anywhere? ？

I’ve posted reviews myself in the past, but for some reason, they’re always deleted right away. I can’t help but wonder if the kindergarten is asking for them to be removed and having reviews that are inconvenient for them deleted.

If there are any parents who currently have children attending the kindergarten—or who have had children there in the past—I would really appreciate it if you could share your honest experiences and opinions.

I would appreciate it if you could share your “unfiltered feedback”—as candidly as possible—about anything that caught your attention or your actual impressions.

If you have a spare room, I’d recommend considering a live-in babysitter （ Au Pair ） as one of your options.
There’s a placement agency called “Au Pair International,” and Hawaii is one of the areas they cover. ！

Nice to meet you.
I live in Japan and am currently traveling in the U.S. Yesterday, while driving a rental car from Idaho to Yellowstone, I exceeded the speed limit （ of 65 miles per hour ） by about 40 miles and was issued a ticket by the Fremont County Sheriff for DRIVING -RECKLESS, and was told to call if I cannot appear in court on a certain date in September; I was also told that the fine would be determined at that time.
Will I be able to pay the fine after I return to Japan? ？
Also, what would be a reasonable amount? ？
I would appreciate any information you can provide. Thank you in advance.

Before the date in September arrives, call the Fremont County Circuit Court ） listed on the ticket （ Citation ）, explain that you must return to Japan （ because you are a traveler ）, and ask how to pay the fine.
Since this traffic ticket is not a standard speeding violation but rather “Reckless Driving （” ）—a criminal misdemeanor （）— I do not believe online payments via the court portal （ (such as the Wyoming Judicial Branch Payments system) are available.
If you’re told you must appear in court or if the fine is substantial, you should consider hiring a Wyoming traffic attorney （ Traffic Attorney ） to appear on your behalf.
I wrote that as if I knew what I was talking about, but it was actually a Google AI search. I just copied and pasted a topic by “Harabou” in Japanese. Looks like I could become a lawyer starting tomorrow ！！

My child will turn 6 next month.
We use The Bus to get to school, but it seems a HOLO card is required starting at age 6, so we need to get one.
Is going to the Kalihi Transit Center the only way to do this?
Also, do I have to bring my child with me to the Kalihi Transit Center to get the card?
Or can I get it done if I go alone as a parent, as long as I bring my passport or other ID?
If anyone knows, please let me know.

I'm not up to date on the latest information, but I believe you could also get one at the service counters of Foodland and Time’s Supermarket at Ala Moana Shopping Center.
You can also have multiple accounts under your own name.

My apologies.
It seems you need a photo ID (such as a passport) to get the children’s discount.
It seems the locations are limited to
Satellite City Halls (except Ala Moana Center)
TheBus Pass Office (Kalihi)
Online (see form below)
.
Since I’ll probably be taking the bus with my child to school, this was very helpful.

I slice the chicken breast lengthwise and stir-fry it in olive oil with wine vinegar, garlic, black pepper, and herbs. I also stir-fry broccoli, onions, and other vegetables along with them. I found the wine vinegar online, so I bought it right away. It turned out really delicious.
