バイト休みの昨日、天気が良かったので、気晴らしに電車の一人旅をしてきた。
というのも、テレビで旅番組を見ては、「いいな、いいな」と言っている母を誘ったものの断られ、「これは一人で出かけるチャンス！」とばかりに、速攻で計画を立てたというわけだ。
電車を乗り継ぎ、湖のほとりのカモメがたむろす小さな駅で降りた。
MY FLOWER'S HERE ハットに”落とし物”されないように気をつけながら、目当ての店を探し、豪華なランチを食べた。
ソフトクリームも食べた。
知らないおばさんともしゃべった。
普段電車に乗らない私は、3年分くらい電車に揺られたと思う。
スマホを使わないってのはムリだけど、ルーティンは止めて、空や車窓の写真をいっぱい撮った。
すっきりした！
Yesterday was my day off from work, and the weather was nice, so I went on a solo train trip to unwind.
My mother would watch travel programs on TV and say things like, "That sounds great!", so I invited her to go on a trip, but she refused. I thought this was my chance to go on my own, so I quickly made a plan.
I changed trains and got off at a small station by the lake where seagulls hang out.
Being careful not to get "something dropped from birds" on my MY FLOWER'S HERE hat, I found the restaurant I was looking for and had a sumptuous lunch.
I also had soft serve ice cream.
I also talked to a lady I didn't know.
I don't usually take the train, so I think I spent about three years' worth of time on it.
It's impossible not to use my smartphone, but I stopped my routine and took lots of pictures of the sky and the scenery outside the train window.
I felt refreshed!
