今日はクリスマスの連休最終日。
勤務時間の違う友人と久しぶりに会い、スタバでお茶をした。
その友人とは「買い物に行こう」とは特に話していなかったけれど、お茶の後買い物に行くことになった。
僕たちがいたスタバの近くの靴屋から始まって、その後地下鉄でモールへ。
地下鉄の駅から「そんなに混んでないんじゃない？」とモールへ入場したが、数秒経って、やっぱりBoxing Day Weekなんだと認識させられるくらい混んでいた。
目的のお店から順々に、結果的にはモールの端から端まで店内を歩いていた。
人気店にはBoxing Dayから２日も経ってるのに、店内に入るためにまだ入場制限も行なわれていて店の前に並んでいる人たちがいた。
電気屋の後、友人は冷え込んできた夕暮れを徒歩で帰るといい、僕は地下鉄に乗るべくそこで別れた。
さあ、明日から２.５日仕事だ。
Today was the last day of Christmas 4 days off.
I had coffee with my friend at Starbucks. He works in different time schedule from my work schedule, so we don't see each other often. We didn't really talked about what we were going to do after Starbucks, but we ended up with going to shop.
We started with a shoe store near the Starbucks where we had coffee and then took subway to get to a shopping mall.
The first impression we got from the station was "it wasn't as crowded as we thought". After a couple of seconds, we soon realised that it is crowded because of the Boxing day week.
We went to a store where we wanted to check out and then walked from south end to north end with browsing after all.
There were people waiting in a line to get in to a store in front of popular stores although today is not Boxing day anymore.
After we got out of from a electronic store, my friend headed home by walk in the getting-colder weather and I took subway home.
Alright, 2.5 more days to have another weekend.
