Cleaning: Even though Ale is assuming a "peace" pose, but the situation was far from peace. We spent three entire days cleaning our apartment after spending three entire days cleaning my apartment in Kyoto. So, now we feel we are experts on cleaning apartments. :D
掃除：京都のアパートを引払う前に、３日間ひたすら掃除の日々だったのに、渡米してからも、アパート掃除に３日間も費やすことになるとは。疲れた〜！>O<


Boxes: How many boxes we carried for the first 7 days?? These boxes are only the tip of the iceberg. I really think that our arms became at least 5 cm longer now.
段ボール箱：最初の７日間、何箱ぐらい運んだんだろう？写真の箱は、ほんの一部。たぶん、腕が５センチは伸びたと思う。

Our living room: After all the work, we finally made our living room a better place to eat and relax. (Nice Italian lamp from Elisa and Enrico, Dining Table and 4 chairs from IKEA, coffea arabica plant from Berkeley Botanical Garden festival.)
リビングルーム：やっとのことで、リビングも住みやすい環境になりました。（イタリア製ランプ：エリザとエンリコからの結婚プレゼント。テーブルと椅子４脚：IKEAで購入。コーヒーの木：バークレー植物園祭で購入。）
