2019/06/02 Hydrangea Festival in Shimoda

I took these photos in our field today.

Yesterday Ajisai Matsuri (Hydrangea Festival) started in Shimoda. There are a lot of hydrangea trees with more than 3 million blossoms. Now it’s about 30% blooming and they say the best timing to see is the middle of June…

By the way, these photos were taken a long time ago.

It’s a sweet memories of my children….

My son is now 14 years old…..

2019/05/21 Heavy Rainfall Warning

The rain started yesterday and a warning was given for the heavy rainfall in Shimoda this morning.

That’s why the Izukyuko line was stopped and the schools in Shimoda were closed today.

After the rain stopped I took a walk this late afternoon.

They had big waves and a lot of people were trying to surf.

2019/05/20 Loquat Tree in our Field

It was a little sunny this early morning, but it became cloudy and rainy in Izu peninsula after that. We have a loquat tree in our field and it will be the best timing to eat in 3 or 4 days.

My wife and I drove to Gotenba city over Amagi pass because she will have to drive herself next weekend, but she is not good at driving actually.
So we had to check the route how to get there.

I was looking forward to seeing Mt. Fuji, but I was not able to see it because of clods and rain…..
