Some photos of our trip to Sawara in Chiba Prefecture over the 3 day weekend a couple weeks back. On the way to Sawara we stopped at Chiba Station and had lunch at a place called Common Café. I order a burger not expecting a lot, but it was the best burger I've had in a long time actually. We arrived a bit late in Sawara and were kind of tired so we decided to just go to the hotel, shower and relax for a bit and then have dinner. We had a reservation at a French restaurant called Mougins and it ended up being a really great experience. After eating dinner we were headed back to the hotel and we heard some hayashi and cheering in the distance and we decided to check out what was happening. We found a dashi parading through the streets and they were stopping at different places to pick up alcohol lol. Apparently they'd been doing it every Sunday, I think since corona started. It was pretty cool to see though. The next day we went to check out the Sawara Historical District and after reaching our destination we decided to take a break at a cafe. We ordered a shaved ice and some sort of soda. They were both really delicious, especially the shaved ice. It was some sort of flavor using tea from Kyoto and milk. I forget what it was called exactly though. We also stopped by the former residence of Inoh Tadataka, the famous Japanese cartographer. It was quite interesting seeing where he lived. After visiting his residence, we to the nearby museum and learned about his life and everything he did. I was pretty blown away by how incredible he actually was. I was a bit surprised that I hadn't learned much about him when I was studying the history of Japan, but after visiting the museum I'm convinced he was truly a genius. Unfortunately I couldn’t take pictures inside of the museum, but seeing all of the tools that he used to draw maps and learning how they worked was really interesting. On top of that, the maps he drew were unbelievably accurate. I think it mentioned somewhere that his maps were used until the 1900's, despite being drawn several hundred years prior. His cartography was only one of the endeavors he pursued as well. There were also some documents that explained how he helped his town get through the famine, and also documents detailing how he dealt with local lords imposing taxes on his town. Besides the museum, we also took a boat ride through the canal that ran through the historical district. The canal was quite nice, and you could see the historical buildings that lined the sides of it while going through it. We had to lower the cover on the boat for several bridges as the water level was quite high due to the recent rains, but that just made the experience even more memorable. The tour guide on the boat mentioned how when the canal was used back in the Edo period, it was incredibly busy and boats would have been bumping into each other constantly while passing through. During the boat ride through the canal I noticed some interesting statues on various lanterns and decided to check them out. They all turned out to be interesting and unique. We ended our trip by having a late lunch near the historical district. We had planned to take a train back to Tokyo but missed it by a few minutes. Fortunately, a bus arrived at the perfect time and so we rode that back to Tokyo. It was much better than the crowded trains. Overall it was a really good day-trip style excursion and I definitely recommend it! Managed to find 2 poke lids too!

Over 5 million red spider lily is bloomed here in Kinchakuda park in Hidaka city of Saitama prefecture. The bright colors of this flower attracts the tourist from a long distance apart. Here the one flower bloomed over the top of the red carpet like colors. This flower is very eager to show its beauty to the flower lovers.

[English／日本語] A 3-minute walk from the school, you can have matcha and nerikiri at Hanano, a cafe specializing in Japanese green tea. This is a wonderful store that is both a boutique and a café. Here, you can even try your hand at making nerikiri (the Japanese confectionery pictured in the photo). International students, especially female students, like to look at the books of wagashi. A Vietnamese student said, "Wagashi changes its design with the seasons, and they are all so beautiful and wonderful. She said. The wagashi in the photo is designed as a "Gamaguchi" purse. 学校から徒歩3分、日本茶専門カフェ花野さんでは抹茶とねりきりをいただくことができます。こちらはブティックとカフェが併設されている素敵なお店です。こちらではねりきり（写真の和菓子）を作る体験もできるそうです。留学生、特に女子学生は和菓子の本を見るのが好きです。ベトナムの学生は、「和菓子は季節によってデザインが変わり、どれもとても美しいので素敵だ。」と言っていました。※写真の和菓子は「がま口財布」をデザインしたものだそうです。

I spent 6 hours to see this scene at Hell Valley Hot Springs in Nagano Prefecture, but I always thought that the monkey was in the hot spring, so I hugged my daughter with excitement and walked along the mountain road single-mindedly, but I was ? shocked that no one was entering. From there, I wanted to somehow capture the scene of the monkey entering the hot spring, so I waited for a long time, but in a matter of seconds, I could not ? enter at all from there.

Pier in Kyotango Kumihama My favorite place ? on the pier I have seen so far, and on a good day I was able to see the full planetarium from the pier, and unfortunately it was cloudy on this day, but I was ? impressed that I could see the light from the gap in the clouds early in the morning.

I went to the sea when I went on a trip last time, so I took a picture! I want to go again!

古き良き日本庭園のある場所。水の流れる音や金木犀の香り、ここにいると時間がゆっくり過ぎるような静かで落ち着ける場所。日本人で良かったと思える瞬間。

地元の神社。ここに来るとパワーを貰えます。以前花火大会の時に撮影した写真には緑のオーブが映っていました。それは自然の精霊たそうです。お疲れモードをリフレッシュできるおすすめスポットです。

白鳥さんこんにちは！私もご一緒していいですか？

地元の公園でひと休憩。街から少し離れた場所にある小さな公園は秋の顔を見せてくれました。嬉しい時、辛いとき、こっそり涙した日。自然はふと気の抜ける自分の素顔を知っていて、いつでも出迎えてくれます。

私の家族は妹二人と両親のご人家族。この日は久しぶりに家族旅行へ行きました。目的地は高千穂峡。初めての宮崎。自然を味わいリフレッシュできました。

沖縄美ら海水族館のジンベエザメとエイが並んで泳いでいるところを撮影しました。「黒潮の海」大水槽は日本一と言われるとおりその大きさは圧倒的でした。優雅に泳ぐジンベエザメを見ていると時の流れも遅くなったかのような錯覚を感じました。自分自身も海水の中に身を任せているかのようで、時が経つのも忘れていました。

沖縄旅行の海岸での撮影です。都会では見ることができない、青い海と広い浜辺を独り占めした白亜のチャペルです。この景色を独占してチャペルの鐘を鳴らすお二人はさぞかし幸せな気持ちになれるだろうなあ、と思いを馳せました。この景色に浸ると南欧の海辺に立ったかのような気になりました。ひとつの旅行で沖縄と南欧にタイムスリップしたかのような贅沢を味わいました。

沖縄旅行で4月に撮影しました。真夏前とは言えパラソル、ビーチチェアが並んでいるとやはり「南国に来た！」と思わせてくれました。早朝だったので海岸には海水浴客はなく海を一人占めできたような気分でした。パノラマの景色を独占できる贅沢も旅行の醍醐味だと感じました。
