I found out a lot of petals fallen down from Kawazu Sakura trees at the parking lot in Shirahama, because we had heavy rain yesterday.
But it looked like a carpet of cherry blossoms…
2015/02/28 Rape Blossoms at Pension Sakuraya
It was sunny here in Shirahama today.
Kawazu Sakura tree in our field is getting finished blooming, but we can see rape blossoms just in front of Pension Sakuraya building.
Our customers who stayed today said there were a lot of people came to see Sakura blooming on the river side in Kawazu town.
I think it will be the best timing to see Sakura blooming next week.
2015/02/24 Kawazu Sakura Trees at Shimoda Harbor
After I took my daughter to the train station this morning I took these pictures at Shimoda harbor on the way home.
We can find out a lot of Kawazu Sakura trees in and around Shimoda, but most of them are now fully blooming!
It would be the best timing to see Sakura blossoms.
2015/02/20 Spring or Winter in Izu?
When I took my daughter to the school this morning I found out Frozen Dews on the leaves on the liver side in Rendaiji, Shimoda.
It was the first time for me to see it!!
Has spring already come to Izu peninsula? or are we still in winter?
2015/02/15 Mt. Fuji & White Eye on Kawazu Sakura Tree
My family and I went to Shizuoka to meet my daughter yesterday.
On the way to Shizuoka, we could see the gorgeous Mt. Fuji with snow clearly under the blue sky.
By the way, after I came back from walking on the beach I saw a could of white eye in our garden this afternoon.
2015/01/24 Kawazu Sakura blooming
In Japan there are a lot of kinds of Sakura, but this Kawazu Sakura is very famous for its early blooming.
Of course, Kawazu Sakura tree just in front of the entrance of Pension Sakuraya has already started to bloom.
But it's a little bit earlier than usual to bloom.
2015/01/09 Ogasaki Wing, One of Good View Points in Shimoda
Are you coming to Shimoda by car? or do you like walking?
It was very beautiful day again, so I walked on the beach and went to Ogasaki Wing.
This is a very good view points which has a gorgeous landscape with the Pacific Ocean, Izu Seven Islands, and Shirahama Beach.
It takes about an hour by walking from Pension Sakuraya.
If you take route #135, you should stop at this point and take a break.
You can see 14 pictures which I took today on our Facebook. Click here !!
2014/12/28 Daffodil (Narcissus) Festival at Tsumekizaki Cape in Shimoda
I went to Tsumekizaki-cape yesterday, where the daffidil flower festival has been taking place since December 20th.
We had very strong north wind there but we could see the beautiful scenery under the blue sky.
The daffodil blooming is now about 50%, and it's much earlier than usual.
The good time to see the flowers is usually after the middle of January, but the next new year holidays will be the best timing, I guess.
2014/12/15 Early blooming of Sakura tree in our garden

I didn't know when it started blooming.
By the way, It had been almost sunny here in Shimoda today.
I could see Izu seven islands on the ocean clearly this morning.
