I was lurking on YouTube again and found this

SFO to NRT in Zipair 787-8 Full Flat business class

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VDMn30Pctc

This is not from LAX but from SFO. SFO, but the content is the same and talks about Low Cost Airline.

My wife and I have not yet made a reservation, but

Basically, I am doing a lot of research on Zipair.

This video has nothing to do with Japan-bound flights, but it shows how passengers' luggage is handled so roughly at airports.

I have decided on a date for my trip to Japan and have chosen an airline and paid for the round trip.

The date is in the middle of this May, avoiding Golden Week.

I chose ZIPAIR this time because the fare would be cheaper than JAL/ANA, but

the fare was a little higher than I expected after buying minimum options.

Two couple ・ LAX - NRT round trip, total cost is about $ 1,520.

With JAL/ANA, it may be over $ 2,000.

The seat is too small and there is no display in front of you.

Various entertainment ・ I will bring a gadget

Well, I am worried if this 80 year old ＋ can survive until landing at NRT. --;

70+,

Thank you for all your advice.

Yes, the economy class seat size seems to be narrower than JAL/ANA in front, back, left and right.

I was born just before the war and I am 5'-06" taller and shorter than young people today, but

if my knees touch the back of the front seat, I don't think I can relax during a long flight.

If the restrooms are crowded, I have to stand outside the door for a long time,

which might be a nice change of pace.

Also, my wife is taking her I-Pad with her, so I can put a lot of videos on it to pass the time.

＞ Flat seat first class is cheap

It's like JAL/ANA business class made even smaller.

My wife, who is also a cheapskate, rejected this one.

毎年2か月ほど子どもと日本に帰っています。

田舎なので実家からバス停まで20分くらい歩き、バスに25分くらい乗ってやっとJR駅に着く感じです。

あまり遠出はしませんが、近所のスーパーや妹の家(車で15分の距離)などは自転車があればいいのにと思うのですが、普通の自転車は暑すぎて重すぎて無理でした。

電動自転車を年に2ヶ月弱使うために買うのはどうなのかなと思いみなさんの意見を聞けたらと思います。

あとトゥクトゥクで3人乗り(100万円弱)が車庫証明など要らず普通自動車免許で運転できるのでそれもありだなと思うのですが年に2ヶ月しか乗らないのに置いておいていいのかわかりません。

屋根付きドア付きの物置はあるので雨風にあたることなく保管はできますが乗らないと劣化するのかな？みたいな不安があります。

1人だけなら電動自転車ですが、トゥクトゥクがあればちょっとした距離を子連れで行けるので非常に魅力的です。車はレンタカーをしても置く場所がないので難しいです。

Is there dried koji in refrigeration ？ I looked it up and found that dried koji is when the water content is reduced to about 10%, so maybe it is not that dry …

In Japan It seems to be everywhere, but at 99Ranch I was told that they don't even know what koji is, so I am having difficulty. I don't know much about it and I'm not good at explaining it either 😞

Thanks again for the price increase🫠😊.

＞ We just need to follow the city's instructions on sewage, electrical wiring, etc.

As far as I know, a city inspector is coming to inspect the property to make sure it is "as directed by the city" and "you are not allowed to sleep over until that inspection is completed". I have heard that "you are not allowed to sleep over until the inspection is completed". However, this information is very old and may have changed.

However, City of Los Angeles is very strict against illegal construction, so if you are planning to renovate your house in this area, please check the city website thoroughly.

I made it last year.
To be clear, it is very expensive and time consuming.
$ 300- $ 600/1 sqft, so 500 sqft 1bd 1ba will cost $ 150k-300k.
Still, if I can rent a 1bd 1ba for $ 1800/mo or so, I'd be happy to turn around a 10%+ yield.

I thought ＄ you could get 2500 for 1Bed1Bath ？. Because it would include utilities and parking (or street parking in front of the house). Even renting a room in a house is expensive, but 1800 is not cheap ＄ for a separate house ？ I wonder what the market rate is.

It has nothing to do with the elderly, but when I was a kid, which was about 10 years after the end of the war, model trains were very popular.

They were what we would call O-gauge now, with three rails, and my parents had a model shop (now a dead word, too?) where they sold them with freight cars. \My parents bought me one model of a freight car at a model shop.

I was so happy with it that I would 'just' roll it around on the table or on my desk.

I woke up in the morning and as I was walking to the bathroom I was struck with vertigo.
I feel wobbly and the scenery around me is moving and I feel unbalanced.
Last night, feeling tired, I ate something sweet and stayed up late even though I was sleepy, and when I went to bed around 2 am, I felt dizzy and went to bed thinking I must be tired. When I woke up this morning and got up, I felt the same and the scenery around me was moving, I am worried.
I looked it up and found that I have eye fatigue, earaches, etc....
If anyone has any experience with this or has been to a hospital, I would be very grateful if you could tell me what to do. Thank you for this opportunity.

#1039 Bono-chan

Is it the so-called "dizziness"?

Since you wrote in the "Elderly" topic, I assume that "Bono-chan" is an elderly person. I will reply as far as I know.

Do you usually eat nutritious food? Do you eat a lot of vegetable salads?

Please make sure you get a good night's sleep, as lack of sleep can affect your body's condition. If you "stay up late," you need to change that habit. This may be the toughest part.

It's a common recommendation, but lead a "regular" life.

If you don't have solid health insurance, take even more care of yourself.

Living a disorderly life far from Japan, without insurance, can be fatal.

I am sorry for saying such a thing.

Today I went to the hospital for what was supposed to be a routine blood checkup.

A few hours later, I automatically received the test results by e-mail.

Two items are a little out of the safe range, but this is usual and no special treatment is needed.

I go to a paid fitness club twice a week, and I attend a decent weekly yoga class at the LA City Senior Center.

I would like to walk for an hour every day, but I get sloppy and do it every other day.

Well, my body is healthy for an 82 year old, but the blur is starting to show a little, but there is no cure for that.

I use a rotary composting system, but the food scraps fill up quickly, so I bury them in the soil in my backyard.
It seems to take about 3 months to complete composting. I don't put all my food scraps in the garbage, so it fills up quickly, but other houses may not accumulate that much food scraps. I have peach, citrus, and other fruit trees at home, so I dig holes around them and bury them. The compost has a partition in the center, and there are two rooms, one for food scraps and the other for composting in progress, and it is rotated daily to circulate oxygen, but it generates flies, so now I bury it directly in the soil and let the worms break it down for fertilizer.

Thanks Sunshine ！ I knew it was worm ！ ！

I've been looking into this but we have limited space for a field and I was thinking it would be difficult to make a compost section in addition, but I just saw on Instagram I just found out on Instagram that Dollar Tree has a wire trash can that you can bury in the soil and put cardboard pieces and food scraps in it.

At least it doesn't cost much, so I'll give it a try ！

I see the rotary one has two layers ！ I still think burying it in the dirt might be better for me, since I don't want flies coming in.

I don't want to put it under the eaves because I have to keep it out of the rain after all, like cardboard composting 😓

Fortunately, we have worms in our small field, so I'll ask them to move out a bit from there.

I don't know why on instagram or youtube people post how they do it, but there is so little explanation of what to do and when to do it afterwards that it's hard for the layman to understand.

I have been thinking that it is a waste to throw away the banana peels and the outside of the cabbage (I always throw away 1-2 pieces) after my children eat them every day, but it is very hard to compost them.

I will look into it more ！.

I use a shovel to dig and bury a circle over 20 cm in diameter.
If I cover them with enough soil to hide the garbage and leave them alone, they will decompose before I know it, so I don't even use a box. Shells do not attract flies or insects, so even if you leave them unburied, they will eventually break apart and become fertilizer nutrients, although it will take some time in the sunlight.
All you need is a shovel and some soil, so it is economical, and the soil will become soft, so it can be used to improve the soil.

I bought a wire trash can today because I saw on instagram that if you dig a hole in a field and bury a Dollar Tree wire trash can 🗑️ and put chopped cardboard, soil and fallen leaves in it and put banana peels or something in it and cover it with soil or a lid it will become a worm compost. I bought a cover for a microwave dish because it was the perfect size for it.

I didn't cook today and ate out, so I don't have any garbage, but tomorrow morning I want to dig a hole and bury the garbage directly in the garbage can and for the garbage can.

I was wondering if I should buy a wire trash can from Amazon ＄ I'm glad I did for a little over 1. I guess the wisdom of people who are used to it is amazing in any field.

Either way, some places don't list their phone numbers on their internet sites because of the risk.
