Sunday Morning Gathering at Royu Driveway Again – Porsche 356, GT3RS, Ferrari…etc. ...

Gathering at Royu Driveway Last weekend, my husband planned to join the morning gathering at Royu Driveway, so I decided to join him after a long time. Since it was cherry blossom season, my mother-in-law came to our house to help watch the kids while we enjoyed the flowers. This time, there was no accident like “the kids getting sick the day before,” so we were able to participate as planned… but then the weather...

Porsche 911 GT3, Ferrari, Lamborghini Gather at Royu Driveway

First Time Joining the Supercar Gathering @ Royu! Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, and More…

Supercar Gathering @ Royu on Sunday Morning Every Sunday around 8 a.m., there’s a supercar gathering (sort of) at the Royu Driveway’s lookout point. It’s less of a formal meet-up and more of a relaxed, come-as-you-please event where people arrive freely, drive freely, and leave freely. Although I live about a 10-minute drive from the Royu Driveway, I had never actually been there before. That’s because I thought “many people might come just to show...

Even Moms Want to Drive the Royu Driveway Freely Sometimes

A Rare Opportunity Yesterday, I wrapped up work early and took my eldest and second daughters to the dermatologist in the evening. As we finished the appointment and were about to head home, a thought struck me. Oh right, today my husband didn’t need dinner. Maybe I’ll just grab some ready-made food and fill up the gas tank on the way home… As I was driving, both girls immediately fell fast asleep. A ch- chance…!!...
