I walked in Shirahama beach!

060407beach001_1From today, fresh children started to go to school by walking as a first day of new year.

My daughter, Akari, is a reader of group of children who live in our area.

This is not a reason that I thought, but I decided to go to the school with them after long time.

It was sunny this morning, so I was very happy to walk.

After getting to the school I said good bye, and I continued to walk toward Kawazu town.

After all I reached to the end of Shirahama Chuou beach, and took this picture from top of a hill.

From this place we can see "Shimoda Prince Hotel" on the right side of this picture, and today I went back to my home walking along the beach……

060407beach002_2After coming down to the route 135 near the sea I went into Shirahama Chuou beach.

This blue fence is to protect the sand.
In winter the wind from east is very strong and this wind blow off the sand.
That’s why the local people establish this fence every winter.

I reached the opposite side of the beach.
And I took a picture here again.
Shimoda Prince Hotel is on the left side this time.

I felt one thing when I was walking this beach.
The sand of this beach is softer than Shirahama Ohama beach.
But I don’t know this reason.

From this place I walked on the rocks along the sea.

I guess it is about 200 meters from Chuou beach.

Well, I could reach here and see Shirahama Ohama beach over red gate of Shirahama shrine.

This beach is about 800 meters, we can see Hotel Izukyu overthere.

Today I walked about 6 kirometers at last.

A walking in the morning is really good for health, right ?
