| II. Another day of Late Aug., 2003 --- Yankee Stadium |
| A day of Aug., 2003 --- AirTrain Newark | |
 |
1. I left Japan 14 hours ago, and just arrived at Newark Liberty International Airport. Now I am on my way home moving between terminals by taking AirTrain Newark down to the Amtrak station. This train is really amazing. |
 |
2. Here is what the train looks like. It consists of personal compartments. The pictures above left and near left are both from the train. How beautiful! |
 |
3. Can you imagine how comfortable my compartment is? |
| Another day of Late Aug., 2003 --- Yankee Stadium | |
| 1. Today I'm at Yankee Stadium to watch the New York Yankees versus the Chicago White Sox game. Before I come in, I find the official merchandise shop. Oh, look! They have Matsui T-shirts! All I know about the Yankees is 'Godzilla' Matsui. Go, Matsui! |
 |
| 2. Let's go inside. The staff is handing out a premium card set commemorating Roger Clemens' 300 wins. |
 |
| 3. At the ground-level stands. |
 |
| 4. When we get to our seats after stopping by a foodstand, the game has already started. |
 |
| 5. It is a beautiful day and there are a lot of people. |
 |
| 6. A man selling cotton candy. |
 |
| 7. Here is a beer vendor. |
 |
 |
8. Someone got a hit! Yankees get 5 runs in one inning. Yah, Go Yankees! |
 |
9. Fans are clapping and watching. |
 |
10. I take a picture of Matsui. He has already shown his exceptional talent with his great contributions to the team. I am really happy that he has done so well in the U.S. after leaving Japan. |
| 11. Between the top and bottom of the seventh inning is the Seventh Inning Stretch. Traditionally, "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" is played, but since September 11, 2001, "God Bless America" has replaced it. |
 |
| 12. People sing with their hands on their chests. |
 |
| 13. Soon without any big excitements, the game is over. Yankees win with a score of 7-5 over the White Sox. |
 |
| 14. In front of Yankee Stadium. |
