Kuri

クリ means Chestnut. Fell Autumun with low temperatures. Taste Autumn with Kuri. Il like to mix it with rice. Actually when you go in the Yokohama Chinatown, many Kuri street sellers try to catch the tourist. A pretty nice smell flights in the streets.

Medecine

Told you about my kids were sick. So we got some medecine and here I give a quick translation of the explanations they provide. It might differ from other Hospitals. Each has its own way and this is the first time I have seen it. So I share.

Here in the Ishii Hospital itself provide you the medecine. The other ones I used to go had a small shop outside or close enough, usually a different owner. Some shops will give you a printed paper with pictures and explanations, some will give a paper bag with the details written on it.

In this example, we have a small paper where the name of the medecine, the ID code, the kind (vitamins...) and the frequency you have to drink it are written on. Have a look on the explanation.

Ishii Hospital

My kids were sick last week. They caught a cold. I have been to this doctor in the Aina district. The interior and the consultation room is really vintage. Cartens with red flowers, pictures of the Fuji-san, wooden floor... look like a kitchen! They use a lot of "atomizers" for noze, throat and ears.
