Expo

Shanhai Expo will be opened this year.I think most of people have heard Expo. But maybe a few people know what Expo is. In fact, Expo is the third largest event in the world after Football World Cup and the Olympic Games. It is a big event.
There are two kind of Expo. One is World Exhibition which is held every 5 years. Another is International Recognized Exhibition which is held between two World Exhibitions. It is much smaller than World Expo.
The beginning of the Expo was that in old days, people got together to sell their own things. In 18c, scientists invented new technique, so people got together not for the sell, but to show new technique or invention to people.
The first expo was held in France in 1798. At that time, expo was just a small national exposition for showing industrialization and technique. After the first Expo, Expo became bigger and bigger.
This kind of exhibition was soon followed by other national exhibitions in Europe, (like Belgium, Poland and so on). Other countries held this kind of exposition, too.
In 1849, the premier of France suggested to hold an international exposition. Because of this, the first international expo was held in the Crystal Palace in London in 1851. Additionally, by hosting this exhibition, "Great Britain made clear to the world its role as industrial leader." From that time, expo is not just to show industrialization now, it also has nation branding. (Like I have the top technique in the world.) I think everybody knows the Eiffel. But do you know why it is built? The Eiffel Tower was built for the fourth international expo which was held in Paris.

The swine flu

The number of the people who got swine flu is increasing now. In Japan, there are 236 people who got swine flu. It is increasing in a fast speed!!
Swine flu has been confirmed in more than 9,830 people in at least 40 countries, with most of the cases in Mexico and the U.S. I have heard that Japan is the fourth after Canada.
A lot of Japanese people feel panic because we may get swine flu unconsciously after we meet a person who had it . I feel tension,too.
There is no people get swine flu in Kando now. But we cannot say that it will never happen...

Ikspiari

Last Sunday, I went shoping with my two good friends. We went to Ikspiari which is in Maihama.


I think that maybe some people don't know Ikspiari. So I want to tell you something about it first. Ikspiari is in the Disney Resort. It is a kind of shopping center. It has shops, restaurants and cinema. The building of the Ikspiari is so cute that you may feel that you are in the Disneyland. And it dosen't take any admission. So I think you can have a good time in there.

We reached there at about 12 o'clock. So we went to a chinese restaurant to have lunch first. The decoration of the restaurant was a little bizarre because there was a big doll sit in the center table. I took the picture.↓↓
From the picture you can know how stange the doll is. Since the restaurant was very crowded so only the center table was empty.
So we had to sit with the doll!!! I had heard the at night(dinner time), the doll would move with the music. So we were a little worried about it. But it was lucky that it didn't move!!


We ordered rice(which had some soy sauce meet on the top of it), harumaki, fried chicken. All the food was very delicious.

After the dinner, we watched a movie which is called "yes man". It is a good movie. If you have time, you should watch it.

The movie was a little long. So after watching the moive, we felt a little hugry. So we decided to get some dessert. There is a food area in the B1. We found a shop which sold many kinds of strawberry cake. And all of them looked so delicious!! At finally, I chose the one which had a lot of strawberry.

This is my first time to go to the Ikspiari, and I had a good time there.
