The 80th MLB All-Star Game will be held on July 14 at Busch Stadium in St. Louis, and all the All-Star players were announced.  Albert Pujols (Cardinals) and Derek Jeter (Yankees) are the lead stars selected by the votes in each league. Among all those super stars, Ichiro Suzuki (Mariners) was selected as the only Japanese MLB player to play in All-Star Game 2009. Amazingly enough, Ichiro has been selected as All-Star player 9 years straight since his first MLB season in 2001.  The same as his creating new records in the regular seasons, he put his name with a new record in All-Star Game: In 2007 All-Star Game, he hit the event’s first inside-the-park home run, with 2 other hits. You can count on his great performance in 2009 as well.

There are many of Ichiro items available on Yahoo Japan auctions including valuable signed balls and rare trading cards. You should check some of them by all means.

Our vacation time has come.  In Japan, there is a big holiday season in May, so called ‘Golden Week’.  This holiday period includes Showa Day (April 29), Constitution Memorial Day (May 3), Greenery Day (May 4), and Children’s Day (May 5).

Showa Day, which used to be Emperor’s Birthday, is celebrating the birthday of late Showa Emperor:

Constitution Memorial Day is celebrating the memorial day of Japanese first Constitution:

Greenery Day was set to make these holidays continuous:

Children’s Day is celebrating the health and growth of children, and is also called Boy’s Day.

This year, 2nd is Saturday and 3rd is Sunday.  Since Constitution Memorial Day falls in Sunday, we have a transfer holiday on May 6:  This makes a 5-straight-day holiday.  For some persons,  taking two extra days off (Apr.30 and May 1) and make it a 8-straight-day holiday, or even taking four extra days off (April 27, 28, 30 and May 1) and a 12-straight-day holiday!!!

It is often said that Japanese are hard workers and seldom take their day off, which might be true.  It is one of three major holidays we usually make a trip.   Due to the still-going affects of economic crisis  plus the pig flu, this year, people may spend this holiday season  nearby.

Rtecec will be closed during this holiday season, but you can enjoy bidding online!   Good luck!
