結婚した〜 (7)




Tuesday morning I sent a special tweet, with a "subliminal" message in it:

twitter.com/jeromesadou


So much subliminal that almost no one noticed it... ah!

Tuesday was a beautiful morning and Sayoko and I got married!

We woke up early, walked to the city hall of Hodogaya Ku,

hodogaya ku


took a ticket with a number and waited for our turn.

Then the city officer checked the documents we collected from France and Tottori (now you know why those articles about Tottori:)

daisen tottori


(Around Daisen in Tottori. Osusume desu!)

After about 30mn, it was done! We were officially married. Then I took a train

Shonan Shinjuku Line


and went to work as usual.

Samurai Factory


...

Ok, I can see your face. Now you think : this is the worst wedding ever. Isn't it?

Actually there was an Episode 0 to this story (it is a Star Wars Wedding Story). When we decided to get married, we went to the local shrine (Shinto) and exchanged our vows. It was our own personal wedding!

Shrine


This "Episode 1" made it official for the Japanese law. And the Episode 2 aka the "Family Ceremony" will take place later in the year. It will be much more interesting from a photographic point of view but you will have to wait October...

PS :
* Since we got married I was wondering why this date, February 17, sounded already familiar to me. I was thinking of someone's birthday but no : it was just the day of the Tokyo Marathon last year!

* Sorry, no pictures of us. Anyway I know you just want to see Sayoko but not this time...maybe in October. We will look like this :)

Congratulations on your Ward Office marriage registration.

That's what me and my spouse did 10 years ago. Our trip was a little more dramatic.

Nevertheless, we're still happily married.

日本での日々の生活 - 9 - 日本の夏

Well it is more about *my* Japanese summer...How's your summer?Here it's probably my hottest summer since I've been living in Japan. It 's the first year the lack of AC is bit of a problem at home.I am still working at UltraSuperNew for some Red Bull projects and an other website for an Ayurveda clinic in Tokyo. We already released the keitai site for Red Bull Japan. Keitai meaning "mobile", this website runs only on traditional Japanese handset. For iPhone and Android, things will come a bit la... 続きを見る

三味線 - 1

How to play  Shamisen was something I wanted to learn even before I start to live in Japan. Well, it actually took some time, but today I had my first lesson! Yeah !!I am a guitar player (well, I mean like everyone~) and always had interest in strings instruments. When I visited Istanbul in 2004 I bought a baglama (pronounced balama) and had fun with it at home even if I never properly learned how to play it :-) A friend also offered me a valiha (pronounced "valee" if I remember well) from... 続きを見る

等々力渓谷

Looking for green in Tokyo ? Not difficult actually, there are many parcs and even with a bit of train you are quickly in the mountains. For example Takao San is about 1h from Shinjuku... I don't even mention if you take the Shinkansen... (then it is not even a question of time and distance but more of money...)Today I bring you to Todorokikeikoku just near Tokyo West part. It is just one stop after Jiyugaoka (on the  Oimachi line) which is also on the Tokyu - Toyoko line that starts from S... 続きを見る

日本での日々の生活 - 8

I just realized that the last episode of "Everyday Life in Japan" was as far as December! As Homer Simpson would say : "D'oh!" Yep, time is flying!!So it is much time for my random mix of snapshots in Tokyo and around.Most were taken with the Nikon D5000, and the bad looking ones were taken with the iPhone 3G.This lion is at the entrance of an old imperial building now used as an exhibition place.Just near in a café after the visit, I "stole" this shot of these 2 ladies in kimono. I  wonder... 続きを見る
