I woke up at 4:45AM because it was very cold this early morning and then I was able to take photos of sunrise.
We had a little heavy rain last night, but the sun came back to Shirahama we still had cold wind though.
After I finished cleaning guest rooms I went to the beach to take photos.
This year is the 32nd anniversary, so I made original postcards with the photos which I took myself for our customers.
It had been cloudy before noon and we had rain and thunder until late afternoon.
As we will have children’s day on May 5th I set up Koinobori pole yesterday.
And I painted table and chairs on the terrace today.
It was sunny but the air was not clear, so the water was not beautiful blue today.
I walked on the seaside road to Sotoura beach this early afternoon.
Today we had north wind but it was sunny and very warm here in Shirahama.
He came to Japan from England for the 1st time.
After he went to Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, Takayama and many other places he came to Shimoda.
I was surprised that he had very big backpack more than 25 kilograms on his back and came to Sakuraya by walk for about an hour from Izukyu-Shimoda station …..!
After Shimoda he will stay in Tokyo for one night and leave Japan.
Come and Visit Japan someday again in the future.
Thank you for staying.
It was sunny before noon, but the clouds came from the western sky this afternoon. The cherry trees finished blooming and the trees have now fresh green leaves.
As we have guests today I didn’t have enough time to walk. Because I had to wait for our guest’s check in….
It was cloudy today. As my wife and I had to go to Ohito in Izu city we drove over the Amagi mountains. We run through the old Amagi tunnel on the way home after a long time.
To tell the truth, my wife is not good at driving and also she doesn’t have confidence in herself. So she can not drive by herself on the route which she has never driven. However, my son will have a basket ball games in Izu city over Amagi mountains on next Saturday and my wife will have to drive by herself. Because we will have some guests on that day and I will have to stay at our house.
That’s why I drove my car to show her the route to go to the place where the games will take place…..
He is from France and now lives in Vietnam.
He came to Sakuraya for the 2nd time after 5 years and stayed for 2 nights. (Last time: April 4th 2014)
On the 1st day he went to the nearest beach after check in, and went to Irozaki cape by bus on the 2nd day.
He loves Japan and comes to Japan every year.
“I will come here next year again” he said when he checked out and his words made us very happy!
Thank you so much for staying with us and we were very glad to meet you after 5 years.
We are really looking forward to meeting you next year!
They came to Japan from France for the 1st time.
They came to Shimoda after Kyoto and stayed at Pension Sakuraya for 2 nights.
On the 2nd day they had running to train themselves before climbing Mt.Fuji after Shimoda.
They are beautiful and lovely couple and we had very good time with them.
We look forward to meeting you someday again in the future!
I took these photos at 5:30 this morning. It was sunny this morning, but it became cloudy after that. And now it’s 22:00 and raining outside.
