The celebration for Dr. Ishii's promotion, the barbecue at the Yodo River with my colleagues and their families, and the high school reunion... all of these events took place for the first time in over three years due to the corona pandemic.
At this point, we are not sure if this stable condition will persist, but it is delightful to be able to have such a good time. I do not like having a hangover the next day, though.
