Looking back at the World Cup, Japan ended up with just one win in four matches.
There were some who called this the strongest team ever, so expectations were high, but the fact that they didn’t even make it to the Round of 16 means they weren’t really that strong after all.
In my opinion, the fact that all the “genius-type” players were sidelined played a major role.
Specifically, I’m thinking of Mitoma, Kubo, and Minamino.
If they’d had even one player with that kind of genius or charisma, the outcome might have been different.

Dodger Stadium gets super crowded, so it’s a shame for little kids …—they’d just get jostled around

When you mention a Wednesday day game, I assume you’re referring to tomorrow, the 17th.

I’ve never $ parked in Lots 13 and 14 of Section 5, but for night games, there’s always a long line starting two and a half hours before the parking lot gates open. I parked in the stadium’s on-site parking lot, ignoring that line. $ If you park in Lot 5, you’ll have quite a walk under the blazing sun, so I wouldn’t recommend it for families with children.

Lot 13 and 14, where parking costs $5, are likely to fill up an hour before game time on weekends, depending on the matchup and other factors.
When I went to watch a game last weekend, it was an hour and a half before kickoff, and I barely managed to find a spot.
It’s not that far from Lot 13 to the stadium, but the hill is steep, so I think it would be tough if you have kids.

If you leave the $45 standard parking lot at the end of the 8th inning, you can usually get out without much of a wait.

I’m someone who always parks in Lot 13 for $5 （—I’ll be using it about 20 times starting with the 2025 season ）. I have children aged 7, 4, and 1. I carry the 1-year-old, but the 7- and 4-year-olds usually walk to the ballpark （—though the 4-year-old sometimes rides in a stroller ）.
For weekday night games （ with bobblehead giveaways ）, I always try to arrive 20–30 minutes before the parking lot opens, and I’ve never had any trouble finding a spot. However, for particularly popular events, the parking lot opens earlier than usual and fills up quickly, so I’ve sometimes ended up having to pay the $45 parking fee.
Also, Lot 13 is often used as a staff parking lot, and when that happens, the available spaces are significantly reduced, which always makes me feel rushed.
On the way back, even if we take our time after the game ends, it’s cool and mostly downhill, so we get there quickly while chatting about the game. If we drive, there’s almost no traffic, so the trip home is smooth.

For me, it takes a whole day just to edit a video that I shot for only one hour. I've almost never edited a video before that.

Whether by foot, bicycle, car, or any other means of transportation, a pilgrimage to any of the 88 sacred sites in Shikoku is called an "ohenro" (pilgrimage).

Since 2009, every time I travel to Japan for a week ～ I visit Shikoku for about 10 days and walk around the 88 sacred sites on my own. I have been visiting Shikoku in parts, which is called "kiri-uchi", and visiting all 88 sacred sites in one trip, which is called "tsumi-uchi". Over the past 10 years, the number of "foreign" pilgrims from Japan has increased considerably. The walking pilgrimage in Shikoku is probably the best way to immerse oneself in "Japan" itself. Quite a few foreign pilgrims seem to have experienced the "Camino de Compostera San Tiago" （ in Spain, ） I think this is correct.

But now that I am 82 years old, I am starting to show some signs of old age, and my wife has told me to stop going on the Shikoku walking pilgrimage alone. I would love to walk around Shikoku again with my feet. So, I went to YouTube and watched the following videos and felt like I was "walking" the pilgrimage myself.

There are various ways to visit the 88 Sacred Sites of Shikoku. Options include sightseeing buses and private cars, but if you want to rely on your own physical strength, you can choose to travel by bicycle (typically a road bike) or on foot, relying solely on your own two feet.

In my case, back in 2009, a friend I’d known since high school in Japan sent me a TV program about “Ohenro”—the pilgrimage to walk the Shikoku 88 Sacred Sites.

The moment I saw it, I thought, “I want to go to Shikoku.”

I may have mentioned this before, but I was born exactly one year before Japan’s War-Ending Day (or, more accurately, Defeat Day) in Kami-Isshiki-cho, Edogawa Ward, on the eastern outskirts of Tokyo.

On the eastern side of Edogawa Ward, the Edogawa River flows into Tokyo Bay, and Chiba Prefecture lies on the opposite bank of the river.

Public elementary and junior high schools back then didn’t have swimming pools, so when I wanted to swim during summer vacation, I would sometimes walk about 45 minutes under the scorching sun to the Edogawa River to swim.

If you go upstream along the Edogawa River, you’ll reach Katsushika Ward, where you’ll find “Shibamata Taishakuten”—a temple familiar from the “Tora-san” movies and commonly called “Taishaku-sama”—which I’ve visited several times for New Year’s prayers and other occasions.

Also, near there on the Edogawa River is the “Yagiri Ferry,” made famous by Takashi Hosokawa’s song, I once took the ferry from the Chiba Prefecture side and disembarked on the Tokyo side, paid my respects at Shibamata Taishakuten, walked down the street where Torasan’s shop is located in the movies, and then headed toward central Tokyo from Shibamata Station on the Keisei Kanamachi Line.

By the way, I didn’t spot “German Steel Helmet” anywhere. ^^

While browsing the internet, I stumbled upon ・ The Ventures’ ♪ “Walk Don’t Run” ♪.

That brings back memories—apparently it was a hit in 1964. I think I was in high school back then. A show called “Electric Guitar Battle” was really popular on TV, and I used to be glued to it. But just watching wasn’t enough—I ended up going to a record&music store and buying the cheapest electric guitar that was all the rage at the time.

An electric guitar requires an amp (with a speaker), but I didn’t have enough allowance for one. Since I already had two DIY tube mono amps, I repurposed those instead.

The intro starts in A minor, and I kept repeating “ja-ja-jan, ja-ja-jan, ja-ja-jaaan” over and over, trying to memorize it.

The current temperature in the shade outside my house is 82°F (28°C).

82°F is on the cooler side; when it gets hot, it can sometimes exceed 100°F.

Well, here in inland LA, the temperatures are high, but the humidity is low, so it’s manageable to be outside.

Today, I was digging up the ground in the backyard to pull weeds. The type of weed is called crabgrass—it’s the toughest kind.

If I didn’t have ornamental plants growing there, I’d spray it with a powerful herbicide specifically designed for this weed, but I can’t do that.

I could hire a gardener, but since I’m retired and have all the time in the world, I should just take care of the yard myself—but I’m lazy at heart, so that doesn’t work out either.

I’m having a hard time with crabgrass. It blooms with small yellow flowers. I’m thinking of building a studio on half of my yard. Since I’d be covering it with concrete anyway, I might as well turn it into a rental unit. $ It’s ridiculous to hire someone at 20 an hour just to pull it out—it just grows back anyway. It was cold, so I didn’t check the garden, and before I knew it, it had spread like wildfire. I treat it as an hour of daily exercise.

I’ve been diligently killing crabgrass, so there isn’t much left.

I’m also tempted to expand half of the front yard into the living room.

Every week, a trash can big enough for two people gets filled with tree branches, grass, and other debris. I have 14 fruit trees. I regret digging up the lawn when I was younger to plant flowers and trees, but it’s really soothing.

Hanaki Retiree,

＞ Every week, a trash can big enough to fit two people is filled with tree branches, grass, and other debris.

It must be a huge amount for that trash can to get completely full.

I imagine it takes a lot of effort just to cut back all that unwanted vegetation.

At my place, the area is covered with large, bushy leaves from the Grand Cover grass that looks nice, but I’m worried because crabgrass has spread all over the ground underneath.

Instead of skimping and trying to save the “Grand Cover” grass, I’m thinking of growing a small amount of it elsewhere and treating the entire area with crabgrass killer. I guess this will be a year-long project.

Once crabgrass gets big, it takes the strength of a burly man to pull it out. As an elderly woman, I usually give up after about ten tries. When I go for a walk, I see spots where the lawn has lost the battle to crabgrass and looks absolutely miserable, but I suppose I just have to ignore it. I guess the only option is to use herbicide. I sprayed some on the crabgrass, but the surrounding grass died too. It really does work. Since I’m retired, I’m just pulling them out little by little.

As Japan’s population declines and remote work becomes more common, the number of moving companies catering to Japanese customers is also decreasing. Many companies no longer answer their phones. Since unlicensed, fly-by-night operators offer no insurance, it can be a bit worrisome if your belongings get lost or damaged; therefore, sticking with a major company might be the safer choice.
