It’s been almost a month since I updated the blog. Not much have happened. A lot of work and evenings spent in the gym or having dinner with Chie. Yes, I finally feel good enough to do some serious gym time, though time is still not enough to go as often as I would like to. The sessions with Ara-san at Serendipity Bodywork have payed off and I can finally do some serious running of more than 45 minutes without my calfs going to stone.
Next week I will be in Beijing, though it will be a short week only – leaving Monday noon and back on Thursday afternoon. That’s enough.
Today we will visit the Swedish Embassy here in Tokyo to celebrate the Swedish National Day… Yeah, a few days early but June 6 is a workday. There is a rumor that the Swedish King will visit, but we’ll see about that. Chie has anyway rehearsed what to say… “Hej, Hej” and if his Majesty replies… “Jag föstÃ¥r inte” so she will probably charm him to death 🙂
My tea ceremony teacher will also join us. And afterwards we will have dinner together at Yodakimbo. Looking forward to the dinner more than potentially meeting the king.
Good to have you back bro – both on the blog and in the gym!
I’ve met the king, kind of, and he’s not that interesting imo. I think your emperor is cooler.
Have a nice day at the embassy and later on in Beijing.
I’m at work now and outside it’s raining cats and dogs. :/
The king past me half a meter away and stared me right in the face… Just did not have the paparazzi in me to shoot him in the face with my camera 🙂
