English Translation

Title: Christmas　Personality: Chiy Chiy
Why is it, um, that I think “Wow, I am very excited for Christmas”, and I have the sense that Christmas is coming soon, but the image that the end of year is also coming soon hardly occurs to me? How about you? Are you all steadily progressing with your arrangements to finish the year off without incident? (Laughter) Well, yeah. Last year, um, that parkland outside the harbor was very beautiful, wasn’t it? This year too, the illumination is beautifully lit. Last year I went to see it together with friends.
