I walked on the seaside roadn this afternoon.
This morning we had heavy rain and strong wind here in Shimoda, but it became sunny and the blue sky came back after that.
After storm passed away we sometimes can see the Izu Seven Islands clearly.
By the way, do you know that Izu Seven islands are owned by Tokyo?
AS we had heavy rain and strong wind I took my children to their school this morning.
I took this picture at Itami fisherman's port in Shirahama.
When I was taking pictures I was about to be blown away by the very strong wind!
I took this picture behind Shirahama shrine this afternoon.
We had low tide at around 2:00 PM today.
When we have lowest tide we can walk on the beach to the other side.
There is another beach "Shirahama Chuo Beach".
It has been sunny since last Friday, but it was the most beautiful day of this weekend today.
We didn't have wind and we could see Izu Oshima island clearly from the terrace of Pension Sakuraya.
There are many kinds of flower around Pension Sakuraya and the flowers are now blooming.
Yes, the summer has come here in Shimoda!
By the way, this is our son, Yuuki.
He was putting on the his elder sister's hut.
They came from Yokosuka in Kanagawa prefecture and stayed at Pension Sakuraya for 3 nights.
As we had sunny days this weekend I think it was good holidays for them.
When they checked-out she said that she prefered B&B like our Pension than the resort hotels.
We are very glad to hear this!!
Thank you for staying with us.
See you again!
This is a family who live in Yokosuka, Kanagawa prefecture.
They came to Shimoda for Black Ship Festival for the 1st time, and stayed for 3 nights.
We are very happy thay you had beautiful days this weekend.
We look forward to meeting you again.
Thank you for staying with us.
The Black Ship Festival started today, and the fireworks display took place from 8:15 PM at Shimoda harbor.
When the display started the moon came up!!
Yes, it was very good timing!
I took a lot of pictures, but I posted some of them on my facebook.
It was really beautiful today.
I love this blue sea, Shirahama!!
When I came back from Shimoda I saw a full moon shining on the Pacific ocean.
