A Special Silver Week with My Family in Japan
今年のシルバーウィークは、地元の富士市に帰りました!家族といっしょに、ゆっくり時間を過ごしました😊
まず、両親といっしょに「くら寿司」へ行きました🍣 久しぶりに家族でお寿司を食べました。写真の右にいるのは、私の父です!

家の近くにある「かぐやの湯」という新しい銭湯にも行きました♨️ お風呂に入る前に、そこで簡単なお昼ごはんを食べました。私はカキフライを食べました!とてもおいしかったです。
シルバーウィークの間は、くもりや雨の日が多かったです☔

でも、一日だけとてもいい天気の日がありました。その日は家族の車を洗いました!私は車の免許を持っていませんが、なぜか車を洗うのが好きです😂 暑い日に冷たい水を使って車を洗うのは、とても気持ちよかったです!

夜は、ベランダで家族と焼肉をしました🥩 とても静かで、ゆっくりできました。最近のことについて、家族とたくさん話すこともできました。
そして、一番大切だったのは、お墓参りです。おじいちゃんやご先祖さまのお墓へ行きました。雨がたくさん降っていて、みんなびしょぬれになりましたが、行くことができてよかったです。
みんな毎日忙しいので、家族に会う時間がだんだん減ってしまいます。今回のシルバーウィークは、家族と過ごす大切な時間になりました。また富士市に帰るのが楽しみです!

English Translation
This Silver Week, I went back to my hometown, Fuji City. I spent some relaxing time with my family.
First, I went to Kura Sushi with my parents. It had been a while since we all ate sushi together as a family. The person on the right in the photo is my dad!
I also went to a new public bath called Kaguya no Yu near my family’s house. Before taking a bath, we had a quick lunch there. I had fried oysters, and they were very delicious.
During Silver Week, there were many cloudy and rainy days. However, there was one day with really nice weather. On that day, I washed my family’s car. I don’t have a driver’s license, but for some reason, I really like washing cars. Washing the car with cold water on a hot, sunny day felt really refreshing!
At night, we had yakiniku on the balcony. It was very quiet and relaxing. We were also able to talk a lot and catch up on what had been happening recently.
Most importantly, we visited the family grave. We went to visit my grandpa and our ancestors. It was raining heavily, so we all got completely soaked, but I was glad that we went.
Everyone is busy every day, so we have less and less time to see each other as a family. This Silver Week became a very special time for me to spend with my family. I’m already looking forward to going back to Fuji City again!
