Halloween is coming up on Sunday, so this week I have something special that is often made at Halloween time in the entrance of my English conversation (英会話) school, Smith’s School of English Tsukaguchi (スミス英会話塚口校) in Tsukaguchi(塚口), Amagasaki(尼崎市), Hyogo Prefecture (兵庫県).

ー王維（英訳 フランク・ワトソン）

We go from January to the 3rd week of April. Then we take a break. Then we go May to mid August and take another break; finally late August to the 3rd week of December...and start all over. What a great balance. This time I'm travelling solo in Hiroshima Prefecture. Peace. Jim smithweb.co.jp/sagamihara/
