トリノ五輪

レジデンス1年と1ヶ月目

昨日は先日紹介した小泉明朗君夫妻の住むアパートに夕食に呼ばれました。メニューは餃子。粉にハマっているという夫妻は、改良を重ねた皮から作るという気合いのはいった餃子でもてなしてくれました。皮薄めのものは焼き、厚めのものは水餃子へ。お、おいしかったわ〜。
小泉宅にはTVがあった（うちにはない）ので、トリノ五輪を見させてもらいました。ちょうどその時は男子スピードスケートの1500Mセミファイナルをやっていて、日本の選手にもちろん注目してましたが、韓国の若い選手たちの滑りが印象に残りました。作戦がはまってたせいかもだけど、見てると気持ちよくてつい目が追ってしまうかんじ。

Turin Olympic Games

I was invited to dinner at the Koizumis (I wrote about Meiro-kun the other day). We had gyoza (Chinese dumplings / jiao-zi?) together. They said that they are into making ‘dough’ – things like Udon. They even made the skin by themselves – it was 100% homemade. We made fried ones and boiled ones, depending on the thickness of the skin. Mmm... soooo good!
They have TV (I don’t) and we were watching Turin Olympic games. The semi-final of Men 1500m speed skating was just on. There was a Japanese athlete too; but the performance of young Korean skaters impressed me very much. Probably it was because of their clever play; but there was also something very pleasing to watch in their performance. My eyes simply followed their movements.
