Basho Again
A form of Basho is in front of the JR Shinshirakawa Station. I came here yesterday, with my young friends, to take an automobile to Ten-Ei Mura British Hills. The automobile was on the other side of the station.

More about the Hills
Hills are small mountains.
British Hills in fact are not hills or mountains. They are a sort of hotel on a mountain, with a special purpose. Nearly everything in this hotel is British or English. The building and the 14 houses are copies of old ones in Britain. Most of the workers are able to give talks in English though some have Australian sounds. Streets are clean with no automatic soft-drink machines. 2006.04.20 Thursday
Who's There?
This is the office building of British Hills. In front of the office building, there is a black form of someone seated. Who is it? 2006.04.29 Saturday
Who Is It Again?
This is the one seated in
front of the British Hills office building. This person has a short growth of hair on the upper lip. So this is a man. He has little hair on the top of his head but has long hair on the back. He is in short bag-like trousers and pointed shoes. He has a roll of paper in his left hand. Now you may see who he is. He is the most note[d] English writer of verse and plays. 2006.05.02 Tuesday
The Chaucer House
Every house at British Hills has a name. This house is named "Chaucer." Other houses have names like "Newton," "Wren," "Drake" and so on. They are the names of Englishmen noted in the history. 2006.05.12 Friday
The Pub
"Pub" is a short form of "public house." It is a place for talks and drinks. British Hills have their pub among other houses. Do you see its signboard in this picture? The name of this public house is "Falstaff." It is to be sounded like "fall-staff." It was named after Sir John Falstaff, the very fat man of humor in plays by Shakespeare. 2006.05.22 Monday
British Hills Store
This house made of stones is a store of goods like books, paper-weights, pictures, postcards, sweets and so on. |
