昨日(2018年7月11日㈬)午後は、元職場の¿同僚?で同世代・同学年のセニョール青木氏(瀬戸在住)と2年数箇月振りに再会し金山のスペイン・レストラン etc. で楽しく素晴しい時間を過ごすことができました。
上の foto は 金山の Bar España で 撮影したものです。既にいくらか alcohol (と言っても cerveza や vino です) が入り、2人ともこのような表情が出来上がった次第です。スペイン人たちがよく口にする Hay que disfrutar la vida. (人生を楽しまなくては) との思いを Ernesto Mr. T は(おそらく セニョール・アオキ氏も) 新たにしました---少なくとも昨日はそう思えました。
Bar España と Asunal で 3時間半(約4時間)ほど、海外旅行(ヨーロッパ中心)でのあれこれや自分たちの現状、御互いが知っている人たちの消息、さらには宇宙,そして青春、etc と話は尽きることがありませんでした。数ヶ月後、来年1月か2月ごろにでも この 素敵な gran amigo simpático と再会できればなあ,と思っております。(¡次回は名古屋駅の Bar España あたりで 本物の chorizo や スペイン・スープ などを共にしたいものです!) La amistad para siempre.

セニョール青木氏は理科の先生です。以下の ノーベル賞月報も 昨日の青木氏との再会後目を通すとまた味わい新たなものがあります。

The Nature of Discovery

Eureka!

Progress
in science is far from a smooth ride. The Eureka moments that have

study and hard lab work lay the foundations for the ground-breaking
insight. Tiny details or apparent mistakes hold the key. Here, Nobel
Laureates share their thoughts on how ground-breaking discoveries can be
both thrilling and lonely.

Heinrich
Rohrer shared the 1986 Physics Prize for designing a scanning tunneling
microscope that produced three-dimensional images of objects down to
the atomic level. There were enormous experimental difficulties involved
in building such an instrument, and perhaps a dose of luck.
