German Christmas Market

I visited the German Christmas market (in German, we call it "Weihnachtsmarkt") in Osaka last Sunday. It was my first visit to the market in Japan. At the market we could eat potatoes("Bratkartoffeln"), sausages("Wurst"), cakes("Kuchen") and sweets(like "Stollen") and drink Beer. I didn't drink it but I ate all of them. My favorite food for Christmas is Stollen. It is famous in Germany and it tastes like cake. In Japan, it is expensive but we can buy cheaper in Germany. If you have chance to eat it, please try it! Speaking of drink, hot chocolate is famous, too. If we order it, they will offer it in a cute cup, which is different in each year. This year's cup is like a snow man. By the way, a Christmas tree in the market is famous, too. Its height is 27m and this is the same size the tree in Rockefeller, Times Square, New York. They were the highest tree all over the world in 1993 so it is called one of the tallest trees. If you have free time to visit there, you should go there!

About Experiments Using Animals

I agree on using animals when conducting experiments. Because of them, we can live safely with using chemicals, like shampoo, soap, medicine and so on. If we couldn't examine these chemicals by using them, we wouldn't live comfortably and safely. Maybe some of you say experiments are cruel to them. However, facilities are ready to accept them and today's experiments are done in minimum necessary degree. Nowadays, many chemicals without these experiments are sold in many places, so you can buy them if you hate animal examinations. However they won't fade out, they are necessary for us to live, I think.

Sochi Olympic

This photo is about the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games torch in Lake Baikal. When I see it, I was so surprised because the torch was under the water! The news said the torch for this Olympic went not only on the earth but also space and under the water. I thought it was carried on the ground so I was really astonished. I don't know why the fire don't die. I wonder why they did under the water and why it didn't die. Talking of the Olympic, the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympic Games will be held. I'm so excited because I may see the torch and games. Maybe the torch won't go under the see and in the space but the Olympic will be interviewed well in Japan and around the world.
