My right ankle...

I join the soccer team that consists of my company's employees and we practice every Friday night. Last Friday only 6 members came to the ground so all we could do was to match 3 on 3, just mini-game. Since a few players on the pitch, all of us had to keep on running during the mini-game. So we were so tired and exhausted more than usual.

In the last couple of minutes, unfortunately I got hurt on my leg, to be exact I strained my right ankle and couldn't stand up by myself. Long time no pain such like this from high-school... Additionally, on Saturday we were supposed to join the futsal tournament. So I just only watched the game of our team and cheered.

I wonder if I can go to the office by walk... I'm a little anxious about it.

Win a match but...

Yesterday, we had a soccer match and 3 teams joined the game, so we played 2 games. Eventually, we won both games but personally, I don't get satisfied about yesterday's match because I couldn't play as I expected. Of course I know lack of my practice caused this result but I can't help but blame my age... Now that I'm thirty one-year-old. Phew...

Tomorrow match of Soccer

Tomorrow, we'll have a match of soccer and it will be the first game in this year. Of course we don't watch the professional match but we actually play soccer. I wonder if our team can win or lose the match...

In the Snowland

We went snowboarding and Japanese spa in north area of Hiroshima last weekend. This year, it has been so cold weather and we have much snowfall in north area. So last weekend was the right timing for tour of snowboarding. On our way to ski resort, the road was perfectly frozen and white. Of course my car has snow tires but they are no use on frozen road in high-speed. Therefore, I have to drive very slowly and carefully.

After having hard drive, we managed to get to ski resort and found the snow was perfect for snow-surfing. Because we have a daughter and come to let her see and touch snow, we couldn't do all day long and I and my wife did snowboarding in turn. During one was surfing on the snow, the other played with daughter on the snow. As we expected before, almost 2-year-old daughter was afraid snow and often say "So cold, freezing! ". I guess it was a little early for her playing on the snow...

For staying on night, I had made a reservation in advance and this Japanese inn was so nice place and clean! We were greatly delighted, moved and deeply impressed by the inn and hot-spa. My wife was so delighted that she took a hot spring bath three times!!! In addition, unfortunately for me, our daughter only had fun in this inn, not on snow...

For 2 days snowboarding and staying hot-spring inn made us refresh and happy so much. We think we want to have a tour like this at least once a year.

Snowboarding

This weekend, we plan to go snowboarding and stay at Japanese inn. This is the first time for my daughter and I'm looking forward to seeing her reaction on snow. Actually, for me and my wife we'll go snowboarding after an interval of 2 years. So we worry about it and feel nervous a little bit. But we're also excited about the tour!!!
