My sister sent me an email with two photos attached. They were photos of my daughter’s house and my apartment building. My sister has been to the house, but she hasn’t seen our apartment. She got the pictures from Google. The Internet is amazing, but sometimes it can be scary. I’m not sure that I want people to see where I live. I started thinking that I want to live somewhere where Google has never been. Is there any place like that? Actually, they cannot take pictures in North Korea. (by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)

2014年11月3日「モバイル英語学習」第 269 号(エッセイ ): Time for Winter Clothes

********************
It’s time to take out the winter clothes and put away the summer clothes. In the last few days, the warm weather has disappeared. The daytime is not so cold, but you have to be careful at night. The temperature can drop down below 10 degrees. You can go out during the day without a jacket, but you won’t be warm enough after the sun goes down. The sudden change in temperature makes it easy to catch cold, so dress warmly. Of course, if you are in northern Japan, it is already much colder and you are preparing for snow.
