日本からの来客第一号は、昔勤めていた会社の同僚Hさん。サンフランシスコに出張の折、ロサンゼルスまで足を伸ばしてくれました。ちょうど感謝祭の週末とあって、飛行機もとても込んでいたそう。サンフランシスコ<-->ロサンゼルスの往復なのに、3万円もしたんだって。1泊で帰っちゃうのが残念だけど、来てくれてありがとう。娘の宿題もみてもらっちゃって、重ねてありがとう。The very first visitor from Japan in our new house was H san. We worked in the same department years ago, when I was still in Japan. She was in San Fransisco on business, and flew down to see us in Los Angeles this weekend. This was Thanksgiving weekend, and it seemed the flights were almost booked up. She found a ticket but had to pay $300 for the round trip. We wish she could stay a few more days.. Thanks though for taking time to come see us!
