A City Where Urban and Nature Blend
I woke up around 8 AM and went for a walk together. We spent about two hours strolling around the area near Adelaide's stadium.
The two of them exercise every day, and walking like this is part of their routine. The fact that they've kept it up all this time was really impressive.
Walking through Adelaide after so long, I felt how the city and nature blend together. Just taking a walk felt so refreshing—I could really feel what a pleasant city this is.
After the walk, we had some coffee.
Once I finished, I went back to my room and took a nap.
A Party They Threw Just for Me
That day, there was a small party starting at 2 PM with some friends invited. About eight people came, and we chatted, ate, and drank wine. It was a really fulfilling time.
I found out later that they threw this party because I was visiting. Apparently, it was their first time doing something like this.
I was honestly surprised. They're probably not the type who loves parties. I'm the same way—it's not that I don't like them, I'm just not great at them. So the fact that they went out of their way to do this for me was more than appreciated—I was moved.
Among the guests were David and his wife, whom I'd met before, and a high school student who's going to Japan in March to represent Australia for a cultural exchange, along with her mother. They all lived nearby, and it was really fun.
But while talking with everyone, I realized my English still has a long way to go. I can understand short sentences, but when things get longer, it gets harder to follow. Still, being in this kind of environment makes me want to study more and improve my English.
