2008/07/12 They came from Tokyo but all of them are from China . They have been living in Japan for 5 or 8 years, and sometimes travel for skiing and swimming every year. And it was a first time to visit Shirahama this time.   We had been worrying about the weather because we were still in the rainy season. However it was very beutiful and sunny day like almost summer actually. On the 1st day they left from Tokyoby bus early in the morning and arrived at Shirahama before noon, and they went to Shirahama Ohama Beach soon. All of them were on the beach all day and most of them got a sunburn! On the 2nd day they were going to Shirahama Chuo Beach, but how did you like it? And did you go to the seven water falls after that? We are looking forward to meeting you again! Thank you for staying at Sakuraya. P.S Thank you for sending a 3rd photo by e-mail.

2008/06/27 They are from the United Kingdom and have been living in Tokyo for 1 year and half. It was a first time for them to visit Shimoda and stay at Sakuraya. During their stay in Shimoda they went to the beach  for swimming, Shimoda downtown for lunch,  and went around Shimoda area by bycycle. It had been cloudy for 2 days but it was good condition for their cycling, I think. By the way I heard that they are going to get married next year and will go back to England for a traditional wedding ceremony.   Congratulations!! He is very lucky because she is really gorgeous like a film actress !!!!!!!! We hope your happy life !!!! We are looking forward to meeting you again. Thank you very much. .

2008/06/01 They came from Tokyo and stayed at Sakuraya for the 1st time.  I think they are from France becase they speak French.( I didn't ask them their home country.) When they checked-in Sakuraya I asked them about a long name of one of them, and they answered "Madagascar". On the first day it was almost cloudy and very cold, but it was sunny and hot on the second day like this photo. Did you have a nice driving in Izu peninsula? We are looking forward to meeting you again! Thank you for staying at Sakuraya.

2008/05/26  They are from the United States and live in Atsugi in Kanagawa Pref. It was a first time to stay at Sakuraya and they stayed here for 2 nights. On the 2nd day it was truely regrettable that we had a  rain but they went to the south peninsula by motor cycle. However it was sunny and very hot on the 3rd day. They went to the beach at around 6:00 am and had a fun on the beach until check- out time. After check-out they went back to Atsugi through Mt. Amagi,  Izu skyline and Hakone. Did you go to the 7 water falls and did you see Mt. Fuji on the top of mountains? If you have a chance we recommend you to go to to the south peninsula. You will be able to drive overlooking Mt. Fuji there. Thank you very much for staying at Sakuraya. We look forward to meeting you again.

2008/04/29  They are from France and have been living in Tokyo for several years.    Actually it was a 3rd time for them to travel to Izu, Shimoda.  For the 1st time they came to Shimoda in May 2007 and they went to see and enjoy Blach Ship Festival in Shimoda downtown.  And they came to Shimoda with their parents in June 2007 for the 2nd time.  And this time they came back again to Shimoda and stayed at Sakuraya for 3 nights. During their stay they went to Kawazu Seven Water Falls and took hot spring there, and they went to Irozaki Cape and got on the tour boat which runs around the tip of Izu peninsula.  In fact they will have to go back to France this summer, so it was a last time for them and us to meet.  We will miss this family and hope to meet again in the future.  Thank you for every thing and sending these photos.

2008/04/21 They are from France and have been living in Tokyo for about 8 months. After moving to Japan they have been very busy, so it was a first time to travel in Japan. They came to Shimoda for the first time too, and stayed at sakuraya for 4 nights. They had a rain on the 3rd day but had sun shine on the other days, so they went to Irozaki Cape, Yumigahama beach, Kawazu Seven water falls, Shimoda cable car and many places during their stay. Please come to Shimoda again while you live in Japan. We are looking forward to meeting you someday again. Thank you for staying at Sakuraya.

2008/04/13 They came from the United States and stayed at Sakuraya for 4 nights. They came to Japan for his buisiness and came to Shimoda for their vacation after Hakone. On 2nd day she didn't have a good condition because of time difference by airplane, I guess. But they could go to the Japanese style restaurant in Shimoda for dinner. After that, they went to Kawazu seven water falls and Shimoda down town. During their stay we could have a very nice time and comunication with them and I could learn English with them very much. And our son Yuuki was very happy to play with them. In this 2nd picture our son has 2 postcards of California and San Francisco, and sweet Caramel "Robbin Eggs", which they gave us. "Time flies like an arrow." 4 nights stay was too short for us, right? We will never forget you! Thank you very much for staying at Sakuraya.

2008/02/02  She came from Singapore and stayed at Sakuraya for 3 nights.  It was a first time for her to visit Japan.  She came to Japan for her business and after that, she traveld to Lake Kawaguchi and Shimoda for the Chinese new year holidays.  On the 2nd day we had a strong wind and a heavy rain here in Shimoda, so it was really regretable that she was not able to go anywhere.  However on the 3rd day it was a very beautiful day and she went to Kawazu to see the cherry blossoms and took a bus tour to visit many places in Shimoda.  If you will come to Japan again please come to Izu peninsula to go to Seven water falls.  We are looking forward to meeting you again.  Thank you for staying at Sakuraya. P.S  She brought this from Singapore to give us.  It was really spicy but very good and tasty for beer!  Thank you very much.  We got these photos from her by email on February 8th.  One of them is a sunrise on Shirahama beach and the another one is our son, Yuuki.  Thank you for sending it.

2008/01/23  They came from Singapore and stayed at Sakuraya for 2 nights.  On the 1st day they had a snow in Yokohama in the morning and it was very cold here in Shimoda too.  I don't know why, but their daughter caught a cold and had a fever. So I took them to the doctor together by my car.  It was really regletable that they could not go anywhere they were going to visit while they stayed in Izu.  When your daughter will be bigger please come and stay at Sakuraya again.  We are looking forward to meeting you again. P.S We got the following 2 photos from them by email after going back to Singapore. Thank you for sending these photos.
