Finally, it is the last one.

Thank you very much for reading too long long Bay Area sketches.
I have deep feeling toward Bay Area because it is my important second hometown.
Actually, I was there at that time.
It is a very mysterious sense.
I will visit there again if I have a chance.
I wish to express my gratitude to all of you who were indebted.
Surely, see you again!

Push-button

Push-button in US looks cute somehow.

The astonishment

Astonishment after coming to US was this.
When running, the bus puts the bicycle on the front.

Daring!

Last dinner @ Chinese friend's place

The last dinner of my travel was the special dinner at my Chinese friend's place.

They clean the room and made such a special table coordinate for me.

I was greatly touched by their kindness.

The dishes were a homemade dish course of my gentle friends.

All dishes were so delicious.

I was glad in above all of their friendship.

The dessert was a chocolate fondu.

Um, so sweet ♪

There was a condensed milk, too.

It was such a great night.

Thank you so much for your everything.

See you again!

PALO ALTO HIGH SCHOOL

This is Palo Alto high school.

I took part in an Italian class @ the adult school here.

A good old memory rushed into my mind when I crossed the road.

ANTHROPOLOGIE @ Palo Alto

I'm crazy about "ANTHROPOLOGIE" after I came to US.
The girlish taste always leads me to the dream world.

The branch @ Palo Alto is in a quiet residential area.

Though, unfortunately, the shop had already closed on that day.

For Mother's Day

A lot of beautiful cakes are always in Whole Foods Market.

This is the special cake for Mother's Day.

There are cupcakes, too.

Are these pretty roses also a gift for a mom?

They are meekly waiting for their master.

Ralph Lauren

A large shop of Ralph Lauren is in the Stanford Shopping Center.

The linen of Ralph Lauren is used habitually in our home.
I love the coordinations of the colors and patterns.

My business suits were always Ralph Lauren or Max Mara.

They gave me confidence and courage.

Williams Sonoma Home & Williams Sonoma

This is Williams Sonoma Home.
It has only eleven branches in US.
Luckily, we can enjoy it at the Stanford Shopping Center.

There are graceful displays in the spacious space.

Especially, the table coordinations serve as a reference.

So wonderful!

Even animal patterns with a difficult combination are elegantly coordinated according to the shop.

For me, coming to this shop always was the enjoyment.

I really missed it after I came back to Japan.

I also love Williams Sonoma.

I don't remember how many times I came here before.

The cake of Father Christmas which were made by the mold bought this shop was an idol of the Christmas party.

I still remember the happy party very well.

Actually, it was great fun.

I bought some for my souvenir.
