Hm, I haven't written many posts about what I've done or where I've been this year so I thought I would remedy that situation by first telling you about our hatsumode or first shrine visit of the year. It's a very Japanese tradition. This year we went to Kehi Shrine in Oirase Town.
おう、今年行った所ややったことあんまり書いてなかったので、年開けの初詣の話から始めよう。今年はおいらせ町にある気比神社に行きました。

We then went to AEON Mall Shimoda and had lunch at the food court. We all chose something from the yakiniku restaurant [Gyukaku].

I had the zenbu mori set which included beef kalbi, pork kalbi, and beef tongue.
自分が注文したのは全部盛り定食。牛カルビ・豚カルビ・牛タン。
My mother-in-law had the gyu-kalbi bowl.
義理の母は牛カルビ丼を注文。
A new donut shop opened in the food court so I had to check it out. It's called MILK DO dore iku? I forgot what flavored donuts we got but they were all pretty good.
フードコートに新しいドーナツショップが出来た。それが「ミルク・ドゥ どれいく？」。なに味のドーナツを買ったか覚えてないけど、美味しかったのは確か。
