九州新幹線の全線開通(2011年3月12日)まであと少し。
これで大阪ー鹿児島が3時間45分でつながる!!!
西郷どんが、もうすぐ大阪にやってくる!?
Shinkansen "Mizuho"will connect Kagoshima and Osaka soon (Mar. 12th, 2011) .
It takes only 3hours and 45minutes !
We are looking forward to seeing Mr. Saigo (Samurai from Kagoshima) in Osaka .
Hi, what does "Mizuho" means? Is there something in common with the sportswear famous brand in Japan?
ReplyDeleteThanks.

Sorry I just realised after that the sportswear brand would be Mizuno not Mizuho...
ReplyDeleteSo nothing in common here. Mizuho, I cannot see the kanjis but I suppose it would have something to do with the water wouldn't it?

Thank you for your comments!
ReplyDelete"Mizuho" means "瑞穂”= "fresh ears of rice".
Japan is the land of golden ears of rice.
We hope Shinkansen ,"Mizuho",produces fruitful results.
Thanks for that.
ReplyDeleteMakes me think about the smell around a rice field just after harvest... Smells like in a tatami room. Missing Japan sometimes.
