12時にチェックアウトして、少し走って広いモールでお昼休憩。みんなは食べに行ったけど私は食べ物屋さんに行かず、100均へ。
Checked out the hotel at noon, we drove a while and took a lunch break at a huge mall. Everyone went to eat but I didn’t eat and went to 99 cent store.
何でも売っています。
They sell everything.
綿菓子大好き。合成着色してなかったら更にいいねんけど。
I love cotton candy. If it doesn’t use artificial colors, I love more.
ガーデニングの飾り物のマッシュルーム。何というか…。かわいいです。
Decoration of mushrooms for gardening. What should I say? Cute.
生鮮食品まで置いてる。こないだスーパーで買ったほうれん草とどっちが安いんやろ。
Wow, they sell fresh foods, too. Which is cheaper spinach from Kroger or this one?
結局何だかんだ買っちゃった。
I bought these.
途中のガソリンスタンドで。カーレーサーシャツ売ってた。オサレ？
Car racer’s shirts was sold at a gas station. Cool?!
バイソンのジャーキーも売ってた。うへー！
There was Bison jerky. Yuck!
会場到着！内装の色合いが神社を感じさせます。
We arrived at the venue. The color of the interior remains me of Japanese shrine.
外観はこんなの。夕食後の夜に撮影。
Outside of the venue. I took this picture after dinner.
搬入しようとしてるけど、鍵が開いてなくて、プロモーターを待っているところ。
We were waiting for the promoter to open the door.
何と言うか、この壁画。
What should I say for this mural?!
何やろ。この壁画。
What’s this?
サウンドチェック終えて夕食ハンティングへ。あつこ、りさちゃんと私は、グーグルマップで調べて、某、「キ⚫️ラ」ラーメン店へ。
After sound check, we went out for dinner hunting. Atsuko, Risa and I went to “KIMxxx” ramen restaurant which I checked at Google maps.
近くを川が流れていた。
There was a river in the neighbors.
お店の前に行くも、入店まで20分待ちとの事。店の人にケータイの電話番号聞かれたので、順番が来たら電話がかかってくるだろうと思って、20分散歩して戻って来たら、ケニーとジェイクが店の前で待っていた。さっき来たとの事。我々もそのまま待っていたら、何と後から来たケニーとジェイクが先に呼ばれ、入店。店の人に聞いたら、「2人席が空いたから先に入ってもらった。」やて。一言説明があってもええやん。そのまま待っててもなかなか呼んでくれない。しびれを切らせて店内を覗くと、「カウンター席が空いている。」やて。カウンター席は最初から空いてたで！こっちは40分も待ってたのに！と言う事でここで食べるのは危険だと思い、「やめます。」言うて出てきた。
We arrived at the restaurant but there were some people waiting to enter. The waitress said that it would take 20 minutes. And she asked our cell phone number. We were thinking when the restaurant will get ready, we could have a phone call. Then we took a walk around the restaurant for 20 minutes and came back. We found Kenny and Jake were waiting in front of the restaurant. They came here a few minutes ago. We were waiting more in front of it. After a while, Kenny and Jake were called to enter. A waiter said that seats for 2 person got ready first. We were waiting and waiting but nothing was happening. I entered into the restaurant and asked to the waiter and he said “There are 3 seats at counter bar”. What? The bar counter was empty from the beginning. Holy cow! I was so disgusted with the attitude of the restaurant and gave up eating there. Because it was dangerous to eat.
その後、サンドイッチの持ち帰りにしとこうとJimmy John’s を目指す。テキサスは星だらけ。
Then we rushed to Jimmy John’s to get sandwiches to go. There are lone star everywhere in Texas.
公園があった。夜の公園は注意セヨ。
Be careful for the night park.
古い建物もあったり。
There were beautiful old buildings.
蒸し暑い中、500メートル程歩いて、閉店3分前のJimmy John’s に滑り込みセーフ！
We slide into Jimmy John’s just 3 minutes before closing after walking 500 meters in hot and humid weather.
サンドイッチを入手して会場への帰り道。
On the way back to the venue after we got sandwiches.
ここでもバイソン受難？！
Poor Bison?!
水晶好きやわ〜。神秘的。
I love crystals. It’s mysterious.
シンデレラの馬車！？が走ってた。観光馬車です。
We met a Cyndellera’s carriage?! It was for sightseeing people.
楽屋にて、七面鳥ハムとレタス、トマト、マヨネーズのサンドイッチを食べた。大きいのに全部ペロリと平らげちゃった！胃袋が大きくなってきたのか？！
I ate turkey, lettuce and tomato sandwich at the dressing room. It was big but I ate everything. My stomach expanded.
出動準備完了！
Ready to Rock!
