The following picture is the first meal of the year 2024 in my hospital. A sudden deterioration of a patient was detected yesterday and I was called. I spent a whole night in my hospital and the breakfast in the picture was delivered on the 1st with a kitchen staff's buoyant speech "Happy New Year". This breakfast is a kind of celebratory meal and was offered to patients who are allowed to eat an ordinary diet. What would become of this year? I'd have time to spare in the evening and shall I plan the trips this year?
When I wrote this entry up here, I heard of the earthquake in Noto District, north of Kyoto. The year 2024 got off to a rocky start.
(Vocabulary)
rocky start 前途多難なスタート[出発]
be off to a rocky start 困難な[波乱の]スタートを切る
