Christkindl Markt was nice, although the lack of snow rather caused the atmosphere to be lacking. The weather in Munich has been shifting between rain and somewhat cloudy. I was hoping for snow when we make the trek to Neuschwanstein, but I see the snow is only supposed to hit after we have left for Paris. Even there, the schedule is for rain. I suppose I should be thankful we had plenty of it in Japan before we left for break.

Thank you, everyone, for the gifts. Sengoku, yours amused me greatly. Saeki, Oshitari. I almost think you believe I am unstylish. Regardless, they came in handy for an impromptu board meeting I had. Ryoma, Atobe, Oishi, Kabaji. Your gifts will be very helpful in the future. Sanada, I suppose this means I'll turn your gift against you at practices in the spring. I look forward to it. Ohtori, the music was a good choice. Yanagi...I'm not even going to ask.

The flight thus far have been problem free. We are taking the train to Paris. I think Karupin has had enough of flying for awhile, but there's only one more for when we return on the 2nd. There simply wasn't enough time to head to Vienna and Copenhagen over break. Not with family obligations. Speaking of which, they went a lot better than I expected.

Hope the holidays are pleasant for you all.

I was able to finish the translation for Oedipus Rex for Oshitari Yuushi. I thought I would have had time to get it to him before he left for Hawaii. I suppose it can wait until he gets back.

I have been practicing judo and kendo a bit more frequently than I have in the past. As such, I have been not been playing tennis. It's not as though I don't want to; I just feel like I wouldn't play my best and to me, that is worse than not playing at all.

I've looked over all the manuscripts. Unfortunately, I can only work with one of them. The other two are more worn than I am comfortable with and the writing is terribly blurry. I suppose that is from a combination of wear and age, but that can only account for so much of it. I'll be returning them personally back to the offices in Tokyo. Shipping them back in this state is unwise.

Fuji. Thank you for coming over the other night and having dinner with me.

Yanagi. I have left an order form on my desk. I won't have time today to get it sent in. Would you mind doing it for me? I am not worried about shipping, so there is no need to rush it.

(ooc: the order form is for his Halloween costume <.< yeah, he's still going as Sebastian ;___;)
