QP-chan's little friend ツユムシ

QP-chan found this bush clicket and liked it a lot. So she was having this little friend and walking around for about an hour. When they were about to leave, it jumped off from QP-chan.

Niimis

They drove to Mölle to visit this wooden structure this afternoon. It seemed to have been damaged by the storm Hans. Also, there was a fire so it became much smaller scale than before. But they enjoyed it very much.

Bye bye hot air balloon

Despite of their hope of seeing the hit air balloon lands, it went up higher and flew away. It was fun chasing it though.

While twins were doing homework, QP-chan found a hot air balloon outside. As it was flying low, they decided to chase it and possibly see if it lands.

Suikawari スイカ割り

Here they are having fun doing suikawari. It wasn't so easy splitting it and they did two rounds. At the end, Momo-chan got it.

Happy watermelon QP-chan

On their way home from Copenhagen, twins suggested that they should do suikawari, watermelon splitting game. As the summer is almost ending and it was sunny, Pinga decided to do it right away. So they got this watermelon from the store and got on the bus.

Copenhagen Japanese school

The Japanese school has started again after summer break. Now the school is renting a new place which is quite central. It's nice that the commuting time got shorter for them.

At the movie theatre

They went to see the new Mission Impossible movie. They found this Barbie frame so Momo-chan posed like this.

I am white?!

This episode is from when they arrived at the Vancouver airport. They saw a guy with a suitcase with his name written on it. It was Ian White. Momo-chan said "What?!" In a surprised tone. Pinga said to Momo-chan "What happened? It was just his name, Ian White." Then Momo-chan said oh I see, I thought he is a racist. I thought it said I am white. Pinga laughed and reflected over that he grew bigger and can think about racism now.
