7/29/99

The typhoon was still going north as of yesterday. The flood warnings were on the screens of weather stations in Kyushu and Shikoku. But it was fine in Tokyo and Kanto area. As we have a fairly strong winds, we felt a little more comfortable.

I made a five kilometer walking this morning. When I came down to the national street at about 6 o'clock, going out traffic was crowded with big trucks while in coming traffic was almost none. I thought those trucks came to Tokyo through night from every part of Japan carrying foods for the people in Tokyo and other necessary goods for their lives. They were now hurrying back to their transportation bases for the short rest.

In the morning, I went to a health study institution for adults in Shinjuku, They checked the heart impulse of me and took a small quantity of blood for the test. Then I went to a car dealer showroom at Kudan and extended my auto insurance. The manager gave me a sheet of leaflets informing that Toyota will announce a new vehicle very soon. They expect that it will become a big hit in the market just like the Vitz did. The following pictures are from the leaflet.

On my way back, I dropped in an Olympus Service Station to get my digital camera. They said they changed the metal body cover for improving the move of it but without any fee because the machine was under guarantee.
