Daily Life, Travels and Events in Reiwa

Today, November 25 in 1980, the second boxing superfight between Roberto Duran and Sugar Ray Leonard, which later became widely known as the "No Mas" Fight, took place. As a college student at the time, I was fascinated by superstars like Roberto Duran, Sugar Ray Leonard, Thomas Hearns, and Marvin Hagler. In 2015, just as those memories were fading, I had the good fortune to meet Roberto Duran in Panama, and I was extremely happy and excited. He remains my eternal hero. https://tetsuyasogo2021.blogspot.com/2023/11/today-november-25-in-1980-second-boxing.html?m=1

November 11, 2023: I went to a concert by Tomoko Ogawa, a popular pianist who was our classmate in middle school and high school. I met her again at our high school reunion in August and had this opportunity to experience her wonderful classical concert in Wakayama. I was particularly moved by the nostalgic Godfather theme song ``Speak Softly Love,'' played on violin and piano. https://tetsuyasogo2021.blogspot.com/2023/11/november-11-2023-i-went-to-concert-by.html?m=1

November 5, 2023: On Sunday afternoon, I went for a walk at Expo Park & Expo City in Osaka. It appeared to be a bit early for the autumn leaves season. The weather was surprisingly hot for November, making me break a sweat while walking. Many people were seen engaging in boxing-like dancing exercise under the clear skies, enjoying the day. https://tetsuyasogo2021.blogspot.com/2023/11/november-5-2023-on-sunday-afternoon-i.html?m=1 November 7, 2023: The autumn leaves in Hattori Ryokuchi Park are currently about 30% complete. They are expected to reach their full peak around November 22nd.
