110628beach01 This morning the weather forecast said that the rainy season in kyushu area, the southern part of Japan, has over.

The high atmospheric pressure has been covering the southern part of Japan in these days, so I can understand it.

But they also said this high pressure would be getting smaller next week and we would have rain again.

It means we have to wait for the end of the rainy season for a while.

The color of the ocean was really gorgeous!!….

2011/06/14 Mowing the grasses at Aloe field in Shirahama

110614aloe01 This place is "Aloe no Sato", Aloe Field in Shirahama in Shimoda.

There is a walking path and stair cases, and actually we can see the Izu Seven Islands on the pacific ocean from the top of slope, but we couldn't see them today.

There are a lot of Aloe trees on seaside and steep slope, and we have the Aloe festival here on december and January.

Today I went to this place to mow the grasses as a member of Shirahama Tourist Association.

In this season the Aloe trees are covered by tall grasses and they can't get sulight.

110613mountain01 Today it was rainy this morning I took my elder daughter to the high school by car.

I usually take the road through Shimoda down town and the seaside to go back home, but I took the different way through the mountain.
