Photographed on January 11, 2014. This is the New Year’s ladder-riding ritual by the Kawagoe Young Firefighters Association at Kawagoe Hachimangu Shrine. Actually, I was laid up with a cold and couldn’t go see the ladder acrobatics, the rifle team demonstration, or the boat parade on the Shingashi River. 😭

While I was out for a walk, I spotted them blooming beautifully by the roadside. This was my first time really seeing anemone flowers up close, so I ended up taking many photos. This is one of the shots that turned out well.

If you want to take children out to play Nakagusuku Park is perfect for you! Chūsei Park lies between Naha and Okinawa, spanning Nakagusukuson and Kitanakagusuku Village, and is the largest comprehensive park in Okinawa. It has a wide open area ideal for picnics, plus slides, a sandbox, a maze, rope swings, and a large bouncing pad that kids can’t get enough of—perfect for letting them burn off energy!

When I go to Japan I often forget many things. I wonder if you are the same as me? Here are items I often leave behind: passport, visa, phone, small pack of tissues, sanitary products, copy of ID, ID card, swimsuit, sunscreen. I hope everyone can enjoy their trip abroad!

A while ago, I went to Okinawa for a trip. It was so fun that I now have a good idea of what to do. If you’re new to traveling, don’t forget Japanese public transport etiquette. 1. Line up while waiting for the bus or train and follow the rule of letting passengers exit before boarding. 2. After boarding, switch your backpack to a handheld bag or carry it in front of you. If you’re a beginner, I recommend reading more articles about traveling in Japan. Please support me.

A magnificent magnolia was in bloom. Against the blue sky, it really makes a strong impression!

A beautiful weeping cherry tree was in bloom. Somei-Yoshino cherry trees are lovely, but the weeping cherry is lovely too 💓

Pale pink camellia blossoms were blooming beautifully💓 I really like this flower’s color scheme😊

I found a cute purple flower. Pink cherry blossoms are the main attraction at this time of year, but purple ones are lovely too ❤

I found a lovely flower bed in the park on a sunny day. White and yellow flowers are blooming energetically ☺️

The sky over Kushiro, said to be one of the world’s three great sunsets. After checking in, time slows as you take in the view beyond the window. You can’t know the ease of Kushiro until you experience it in person. Its silence and the feeling in the air turn every moment into something special. Enjoy a comfortable stay in pollen-free Kushiro. We also offer high-floor upgrade plans and Golden Week packages. ▶ Kushiro Prince Hotel https://www.instagram.com/kushiroprincehotel/?hl=ja...
