She was on a voyage of self-discovery.
----------------------------------------------------------------
2-0で勝ったのですが,あまり嬉しくない気分だったりします。
これで,自力で,マンチェスター・ユナイテッドを上回ることが
可能になりました。アーセナルがFA Cup優勝して,ヨーロッパリーグ
という形が両チームによって,望ましいシーズンの終わり方でしょう。
5・6位で仲良くヨーロッパリーグというのは,かなり格好悪いと思うんですわ。

テニスのマドリッドシャラポワ選手,1回戦突破して,本日,ブシャール戦,
その次はケルバー戦と,ワイルドカード利用に批判的な選手との対戦が
続きます。WTA tourはDAZNで観戦できるようです。GAORA,テニスに関しては
かなり見劣りする番組編成で,視聴者獲得厳しいかもしれません。
テレビで観戦するための新規投資が必要になりますわ。

My Hometown Kyoto Part 2 Cool Kyoto

Is Japan cool? KYOTO

In Kyoto, people have a high awareness of traditions, compared with other cities in Japan. 
As a result, Kyoto preserves many treasures of ancient Japanese culture, traditional crafts, 
historical architecture, and natural scenery. Because Kyoto residents cherish their cultural 
heritage and landscapes, there are many rules respecting traditions. But this is just one of 
Kyoto’s many charms.
Now, these traditions are producing many new crafts and cultural innovations. 
Some up-and-coming artisans describe their careers as “more than a thousand years old.”
They know that their work depends on a history of accumulated efforts, and they never forget 
to acknowledge the ingenuity of their predecessors.
