Neuschwanstein Castle

Many years ago I went to Germany with my family. We went and saw Neuschwanstein Castle. It was in many movies and watch said to be the inspiration for the Disney Sleeping Beauty Castle. It was constructed near the end of the 19th century so Ludwig II of Bavaria could live out his idea of the middle ages.

Flight Prices

When I moved to Japan, my mom was really excited because she would be able to visit. However I think she underestimated the cost of flights because when I talked to her about it, she said that flights were probably too expensive. Then my mom suggested that we meet somewhere kind of in the middle of the US and Japan. I suggested Hawaii and was very pleased to find that flights from Osaka to Hawaii are crazy cheap (only about 30000円. So hopefully I'll be figuring out when we will be going soon!

Flowers for a friend, not a sad occasion


When I buy flowers, I only think about how pretty they are. I like purple. It's one of the best colors. It signifies beauty and poise. Elegance.

I suppose the connotation is different over here. These are the flowers you bring to a funeral. My friend got a different message when I gave them. The language of flowers is different around the world. Does your favorite flower in Japan, mean something different in America or Europe? I wonder...


Can you speak the language of flowers?
