2007 New Year   Happy New Year
I cereblated the first breakfast. The dishes were Japanese traditional ones such as "Ozouni", "Tai fish", "Kazunoko", "Kinton", "Kuromame", "Vinegar lotus root", "Rolled kelp", and "boiled vegetables."
Those are the basic menu but they contain my deep wish to spend the New Year healthy just as we had in the past.

I soon picked up New Year cards in the post box. Some say it is a sort of empty formalities to be abolished soon. But it was still good to read them.

It was great pleasures that I got messages from unexpected people. I soon responded back them in the afternoon and posted immediately.

In the evening, I enjoyed a TV program of Wienese Philharmonic New Year Concert.
The conductor was Mr. Zubin Meta who gave me a wonderful view of the concert.
I could enjoy so many live images of Wienna Waltz in Schoenberg Palace decorated with many flowers and incredible dances.
I enjoyed a really wonderful time. I hope I could join a concert of Johan Strauss in Wien some day.
