Column by the Third Generation
A half day off, at long last.
Yesterday my wife, our child and I went for a walk in Akashi, 10 minutes away by train. We had planned to go a little farther, but there was emergency maintenance from midnight until morning and I was short on sleep, so we changed plans and stayed close by.
At Akashi Park we found a somewhat nostalgic swan boat. 1,000 yen a ride, and a relaxing spot even with a small child.
Time with family, watching the light sparkle on the water. Running a guesthouse, the line between work and life fades before you know it, but this short day off reminded me that a break is needed now and then.
