It was sunny and much hotter than yesterday.
I went to Shimoda for shopping this afternoon, and I took a picture of the beach and the city.
Shimoda city has already been ready for the Black Ship Festival on this weekend.
They came to Japan from France for the 1st time.
Before coming to Japan they went to Taiwan and stayed for 10 days, because their son is college student in Taiwan.
After that, they arrived in Japane 1 day prior to their reservation date.
They asked me to have making Soba (buckwheat noodle) experience before coming to Japan.
So we went to Kazono district in Shimoda for Soba making workshop together on the 2nd day.
(Here is my blog which I posted the article about this workshop.)
On the 3rd day they walked on the seaside road from Kisami beach to Yumigahama beach looking over the Izu seven islands under the beutiful sky.
We had great time and good communications with you!
Thank you very much for staying with us.
Last night we had very strong wind and heavy rain here in Shimoda.
But the blue and clear sky came back today!
I took pictures of the beach twice at 11:00 AM and 1:30 PM today.
So you can compare the beach condition at low tide and high tide.
It was really hot like almost summer today, but the air temperature will be much higher tomorrow than today.
