Our pumpkin

The back side of our jack-o-lantern. If you think this is scary, you're one of us!!

Halloween

Our jack-o-lantern.

We had a Halloween party at work. Lots of spooky faces!

Sunset

It was cloudy and gloomy all day, but the sunset was beautiful.

Autumn leaves

I was hoping to get nice colorful pictures, but it looked more like winter rather than autumn.

Singstar

I was invited to a birthday party. And we played Singstar, a karaoke game. This game is so popular here because there are no karaoke boxes. I should take all my Swedish friends to karaoke if they visit Japan. They will definitely love it.

Hearts :)

I found this cute candle holder at a "hearts shop" in Göteborg.

Göteborg again

Visiting the second largest city again.

Swedish cuisine

Having dinner at an extremely expensive restaurant! I have never had such good food in Sweden.

Sony Ericsson!

I finally got a mug I wanted for a long time! :)

Shrimp gratin

Tonight's dinner. It's actually easy to make, and delicious!

Teatro alla Scala

Great music in a great opera house! This theater is fabulous inside. I love the atmosphere. And the concert was good too.

Milano

The fancy shopping street in Milano. Of the 4 cities I visited in Italy, I think this is the place I want to live the most.

Burano island

A small island close to Venezia. The houses were really colorful and cute. It reminded me of Alsace.

Venezia

This place is amazing, in many ways. It would be perfect if there weren't so many tourists. :-P

Ponte Vecchio

Old bridge. Used to be full of butchers, but now it's all jewelry shops.

Firenze

The city of Firenze. It has a more relaxed atmosphere than Rome.

Trevi

The famous fountain in Rome. It was really really crowded with lots of tourists.
