へもへも日記バックナンバー　２００８年　６月　June 2008

O　(31/07/2008)
　There is enough space in my suit case. What will I put? My suit case is occupied by rice cookie, books and shoes. And I've got "Chikyu-no-arukikata London".

Bell with cat　(31/07/2008)
　Monday night, I couldn't sleep easy. Then I heard sound of the bell. Why is there sound of bell? Tuesday morning, I got answer from parents that neighbor has cat and cat walk in themid night. Last night, I heard same sound, then I wake up slowly and I could look the cat. So bell is important to put to cat to know where he is.

　By the way, I will up grade to business class in return flight to Frankfurt. So I will be able to stretch my legs. And also I will be able to start to go for imigration in Frankfurt airport.

Today　(30/07/2008)
　The woman, who is in advertize of JTB, is prety! But I couldn't recognize who is. Is she Wakana Sakai? Finaly I serched that she is Yuko Takeuchi. Ummmm.

　I realx today in parents house. And I don't check e-mail, even I checked it until yesterday. I think sales reps in Europa recognize that I'm not in Hamburg as holiday. This morning I went to station and bought chicket of cinema. But it will be late show. I will not watch Ponyo of Mr. Miyazaki and one cinema of Mr. Oshii. Because DVD will launched in the UK soon.

　I read the Funride which I bought it at Narita airport. The issue of Mr. Narushima is very interesting. And I agree him. Why Japanese road racer is annoy to other biker to show hand signale in the pack? I think it is not nescessory, because all racer have to look forward by himself. Is it wrong? And recture of Mr hashikawa forget important issue that road racer has to be go streight. So German racer is ver safety without hand signla. Because they know that most important issue is run straight.

　I bought rice cooky. There are enough space in my suit case now. So I will by additional shoues for sport.

Shopping　(29/07/2008)
　I went to Okachimachi and Shinjuku 3rd to buy parts for cobble road. But it's not available there. Howevwe, I could buy it at Narushima Frend in Harajuku. And also, I bought new MTB shoes. Because shape of shoes in Europe is not same as Japan. So it's better to buy sport shoes in Japan. At first, I expect that North Wave is better for my foot. But it is not better for me now. So, I bought SIDI shoes.

　And I bought books, which are novel and English study, and tools.

Too hot　(27/07/2008)
　I've been in Japan.

　There wasn' neighbor of me from Frankfurt to Narita. So it's good for me. And I used Narita express, because bus is inpossible to expect correct time. And also I'd like to buy buttery charger of my handy phone at Yodobashi camera in Shinjuku.

　I used medisun to correcy jet lug. It looks to scuceed in this time. And I watch one TV progrum of Norway, even I'm in Japan. And I can't recognize who is in TV.

Lucky　(24/07/2008)
　Tommorow, I will go for Japan, which is 5th trip to Japan in this year. But I don't feel that I went to Japan many times. Because 3 of 5th were busines trip, and I didn't have free time in this case. It's business trip and isn't journy.

　I found that my seat is isle side, when I apply to use luggage express service. So, ANA is recognizing my request. Because it was impossible to request isle side when I booked flight. And also I try to apply up grade to the business class as returnn flight. But I think possibility is loww, because it's high season.

It's dengerous　(23/07/2008)
　to believe car navigation 100%. There was one person, who go to construntion area, because he believe car navigation 100%.

　Therefore, I use it as map where am I. And also, German highway is useful, because it is free charge.

I'm one of 963　(22/07/2008)
　Who send application for next japanese astronaut.

　I focus on my job. I've checked my tool box, because some tools don't need current our products, for example inch size hexagon lenti. So I put out it from my tool box, which is brought with me in business triop. And I'd like to put new additional tools. Other German colleagues without Martin have one format tools. I don't have it, because I need special tools if I go for business trip, because customer expect me as optical engineer and special skil.

　I'd like to buy new tools in Japan. But it is better to buy itin hamburg, if it is possible to avoid over weight of my luggage. So, I went to CONRAD after job. This shop sells many special tools, especialy electronics or special mechanics. Today, I found small pench, which has small grip. general German made tools have big grip. Exactly, it's better to use as in house activity. But it is not better to bring to business trip. So, I don't need to buy it in Japan. But there is not one kind of pinset, which I expected to buy today.　で、よくよく見てみると、意外なことに柄の細いラジオペンチがあった。こちらで工具屋を見たことある人ならわかるだろうけど、ペンチ類は柄が太いので、おいらみたいな出張用で携帯するには、工具箱にも入れずらいものが多い。もちろん、インハウスで使うには、そっちのほうがいいんだけどね。で、日本からの出張者にお願いしてたりしてたんだけど、ここにもあった。

　その代わり、置いてるでしょ、と思ってた、握ると開く先の細いタイプのピンセットがなかった。というわけで、今回の帰国の際での買出し予定リスト。握ると開くタイプのピンセット、竹ピンセット

高度100キロ以上　(21/07/2008)
　への道は、日本より近いようで遠いなあ。まあ、自分の設計したブツは飛んでくれてるので、それでよしとしよう。

さーて　(20/07/2008)
　明日も仕事だ、とっとと寝よう。日本は休みが多いなあ。

Truth needs no defence　(18/07/2008)
　Eugene Cernan said when he asked about question "Apollo was fiction", then he said like this. It's good word. I watched In the Shadow of the Moon today. Now, John Young is very cool. For me their accent is clear as American. I'd like to see current image of Neal Armstrong, but he doesn't come out to official place.

　Hamburg was rainy day today, even Southern France is good, as I watched Tour de France by TV.

　What will I do in the Japan as temporary return? For me food is not important. I don't cook rice in Hamburg, and also I don't go to Japanese restaurant in Hamburg as private. So, It is important to shopping especially books for me.

Great!　(18/07/2008)
　There is images that Boeing 707 prototype did barrel roll!

　By the way, I arrived terminal A in the Frankfurt airport. because there are two layers in terminal A,. Out of Schengen is upper floor, Schengen area is lower floor. So I didn't need to run from Terminal B to A.

It has fixed　(17/07/2008)
　I will go to Japan as company charged temporary return next week. It means that I will stay Hamburg at least 1 year from now.

　This morning, I went to car shop to request to path Tuv regulation. I requested that I will bring my car next week Friday, and I will not be in Hamburg. So I will pick up my car August. I did this request by printed paper, which was written by German, because workers in this car shop can not speak English.

　At first, the plan was that I will go business trip end of August. But I will not go for this business trip. Other Japanese colleague will go instead of me.

The answer to life, the universe, and everything　(16/07/2008)
　Many German colleagues know about it. But no Japanese colleague knows about it. If you don't know answer of this. Please search by this word in Google. Google can calculate it soon, it doesn't use time 7.5 million years.

　Why, I talked about it with Wolfgang? The reason was name of automatic translate web site is Babel fish. Do you know babel fish? It was written in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I requested him to check one text, which is written to offer path Tuv. He said "I can understand what you would like, But this German is strange" Ah so. So, He corrected this text. Thank you.

Ireland　(14/07/2008)



　Gordon, who is sales rep in Ireland, brought us to the best sight seeing point in Dublin Thursday night. It's great for me. There is nothing. Can you imagine that there is not any house and shop around over 10km? Here is far from center of Dublin about 10km. May be, Japanese isn't able to be strong road racer if they have training in oi huto area. So, Irish and European are tough!


　This is Guiness beer. In this time, I had training for Florian as setup and user training. We went to center of Dublin Wednesday night. Now it is challenge period for Florian. So he stays in his uncle house. At last he will start to his flat in hamburg. He goes back to Frankfurt every weekend, where is his home town. So he came from frankfurt to Dublin directly. He said, "I had to go to airport before 15 minutes of latest check in, Do you know Amadeus code? There are many automatic check in machine in Frankfurt airport".

　May be, he can not imagine how many times I used aircraft last year. I used totally over 120 times after I came to hamburg. And he doesn't know how it is tough to transit. because he uses Frankfurt airport every time,. There are many direct flight, because Frankfurt is one of hub of Lufthansa. may be he doesn't experience to use underground tube of Frankfurt airport.

　Basicaly, I go to airport before 1 hour of latest check in time. Because I have many experience of urgent situations.

In the shadow of the moon　(13/07/2008)

　I bought it at Heathrow airport last Monday. I searched it to look cinema theater in hamburg. But it was not available. So I'm happy to watch it.

　So there is many percentage about aero space issues in this blog. For me, it is normal, because my dream was pilot.

Hirehitman.com　(12/07/2008)
　was plaid up in newspaper. Because there was one murder that wife offered to hitman to kill her husband. She found hitman by internet website hirehitman.com. Florian said that there was one website mafia.it.

　I went to the central station to find English magazine in the book store. But, it wasn't available. Is it available in the airport? And I drove to the one site.


　Do you know here? I watch Airlines.net many times. I searched airport, then I found that there is one airport XFW in the Hamburg. Hamburg main airport is HAM. It was clear that I looked the picture


　Do you know it? This is super guppy which transport big parts to the factory of Airbus. As you can see the picture, A380 come to the hamburg at once to paint and some installations. So I could look big airplane. May be, it is A380.


　This is opposite side of Elbe river. The Waseberg is here.


　And I found one indication, which advertise tour office of super market. Where is this? I think it is in Kufu.

I went to　(11/07/2008)
　germany, Poland, Denmark, Belgium, Spain, Netherlands, The UK, Norway, France, Austria, Switzerland and Ireland after I came to Germany.

　I went to the UK, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, USA and Canada before I came to Germany.

　There is stamp of Ireland immigration in the passport.

breakfast in the Heathrow　(11/07/2008)
　In this time, I went to Ireland via London Heathrow, and back to Hamburg via Frankfurt. It was easy to connect flight in the Heathrow, because I used terminal 1 and 2, which is possible to move by walk. I was asked many issues at immigration of UK, for example my job, purpose in Ireland and so on.


　This is breakfast in the Heathrow terminal 1. May be, Lufthansa will move to terminal 1 from 2. I will use many times terminal 1 again.

　By the way, I received my luggage in the morning. It is earlier than British air way. May be, the reason is that hamburg is one of base of Lufthansa. Do you know baggage information center of BA is in Italy? Once I asked about my baggage by Tel. Then worker speak Italian English. Exactly, it was strong intonation. But it was easy to listen for un- English native speaker.

　I surprised that the intonation of English in Ireland is not same as UK especially London. It looks American English for me. But it is helpful for me. Because Irish doesn't drop many word like American.

Lost baggage again　(10/07/2008)
　There was big radar trouble in the Dublin airport yesterday. So there was delay to frankfurt from Dublin. Aircraft touch down boarding time to Hamburg at frankfurt. But I succeed to connect to flight to Hamburg. Actually, there was one announcement, "The passenger to Hamburg will change to next morning flight. Please contact grand staff at gate". but actually, I could connect.

Ireland　(07/07/2008)
　is good.

　Because I can use English, Euro. And many indication is written by MKS system.

そういえば　(06/07/2008)
　なんで、去年はほとんどツールを見た記憶がないんだろ？　と考えたら、日本に私費で帰って週末を２回潰してるからか。今回、初日がプロローグじゃなくて、いきなり普通の第１ステージということで、ユーロスポーツもスタート前から中継を開始してた。

　では、ダブリン出張に行ってきます。今のところ、帰りのフランクフルトでの乗り継ぎが間に合わないに70％。その場合、翌日になるけど、朝とはいえノンビリ帰ってこよ〜っと。

Ａ380　(06/07/2008)
　I think that actually ANA will use A380 for Frankfurt at first, instead of many newspaper say ANA will use it for London.

　Our company makes contract with ANA as special discount, when colleague go to Tokyo as business trip. Sometimes colleagues had to go to Tokyo via London or Paris not Frankfurt. Because the flight from Frankfurt to Narita is full booked every time. And also, there are many flight from London and Paris. So I think that it is best to use A380 for Frankfurt.

　By the way, I will go for Dublin from tomorrow to Thursday. The objective is 2km from center of Dublin. I will bring my running kit to Dublin. So I will do light sight seeing in the morning.

Airbus A380　(05/07/2008)
　ANA will decide to buy this next September.

　I think that this is reasonable, because every time the fright between narita and Frankfurt is full booked, and there is not enough capacity to add flight in each big airport. And also, there is not enough passenger, who uses other measure airport, if ANA uses new Boeing 787 as direct flight. Of course, there is other idea, for example, for JAL, it is reasonable to use 787 because they has 2 flight to London Heathrow.

　I read news of star alliance member. The continental airline will move to star alliance from sly team. It is good news for me. because there will be possibility to use continental to New arc from Hamburg when there will be meeting in the USA office.

親分切れる　(04/07/2008)
　Martin angered for Tokyo finally. "Ken, If you propose counter measure or new plan to Tokyo side, it will change even he doesn't do action. Until now, has he ever done action? We have to claim to Tokyo by higher level. Tokyo brakes our business effort" I totally agree, please send claim to division manager.

　Today, I checked document of international meeting, because Tokyo side send it with one comment "We didn't confirm about it" Then I read it and found other problem. We, Europe side, requested other issues in this meeting, which we requested last meeting in last June. This meeting was held 2 and half years ago.

　By the way, house mister come to check how much did I use water and oil heater. Suddenly, he opened water valve and checked meter. may be, total quantities of last year was too low. So he checked if meter moved. I can imagine that I went many business trip last year. So I didn't use many water. Should be, there will be refund of water?

Too hot　(03/07/2008)
　There is not any air conditioner in German office. So it's too hot.

　Should be, it's better to change my life style to go to office more early, even I go to office at 7:30 now, when I go to office by bicycle. I left office 6:00 today, and cleaned my flat. Because house mister will come tomorrow to check how I used oil heater and water last year. It looks good in my flat now by my effort.

　By the way, I saw great car, which is Bugatti Veyron 16.4. And I saw Ferrari F40 when I brushed my teeth at hotel in London. It's unbelievable for me.

♪Hun, Today〜♪　(02/07/2008)
　♪What were you doing?♪(Colourful by Jun Shibata)

　I like 1st song in her new album "My dear, you", which I bought from CD shop in Japan. I couldn't it when I went for Japan as business trip last month. I like her picture on last page of Liner notes.

　Yesterday, I translated directory. In German, they use "Alles klar" as "OK" or "I understand" May be, it is strange for English speaker.

I've got call from leader of our bicycle team　(01/07/2008)
　"I send mail to team member as you know, but it was written by only German,. May be you can not understand" "No problem, I can ask to German colleague" "I explain to you. You will have to pick up all materials before week of Cyclasics and.." "I know about it, because I participated in last year" "Really? All clear, Bye Bye!"

　Actually, there is one problem. I can't manage when I go for Japan as business trip end of August or first of September. This year, I couldn't participate in harbor marathon, I joined only as charity.

　By the way, I've spent in Hamburg just 2 years. I don't do enough work, which I expected before I come to hamburg. So, Just I start to do real job! Preparation period finished just now.
