[I played with Kendama Ken-chan] From the Atsuma Kendama Club Kendama Ken-chan Retsu Saito came! How to enjoy kendama It's not just about putting a ball on a plate or sticking a ball in it. A unicorn that balances by placing a kendama on an odeco. Stack kendama that is played by stacking multiple kendama. Of course, it's not just about playing alone. Don't drop your own balls on the plate A play of dropping other people's balls. The two of them face each other, and the ball is tight. A game of fortune telling based on whether or not you collide. There are many ways to play. There were many types of kendama! Those with a large number of balls, those with square balls, From large to small. Just a ball on a plate They make smug faces and smile happily It was also a time to see the innocent side of adults. Kendama Ken-chan Thank you very much for making everyone laugh many from little ones to grandma with Kendama!! Please come again! 😆 #Nishiokoppe Village #Hokkaido #Kendama #Atsuma Town #Kendama Club #Social Education Lecture #Council of Social Welfare #Village Self-Reliance Support Center

At Kawagoe Hachimangu Shrine, 🤍 I found a hydrangea of.

Hero of Nature. It was taken in Yakushima, Kagoshima Prefecture.

EXPO2025 Netherlands Pavilion The Dutch Pavilion stands out for its huge white sphere with a diameter of about 11 meters. After sunset, the sphere shines a pale purple color and is very beautiful. In the Netherlands, where about one-quarter of the country is less than 0 meters above sea level, the theme is coexistence with water. If you bring a small glowing sphere called an "energy orb" that you receive when you enter the museum close to the terminal display, the color will change. The climax is a Video on a screen in a large sphere. The "energy orb" held by the visitor glows purple, creating a sense of unity. There are an explanation with furigana in a low position for small children. The shop has a variety of things that are irresistible for Miffy lovers. Dutch cafes are recommended for waffles and coffee. I wanted to try "Pickled in salt herring", but unfortunately it was out of stock. They are waiting for the next Receiving. #EXPO2025 #Osaka Expo #Osaka-Kansai Expo #Dutch Pavilion #neyherland #Netherlands Pavilion #Miffy #miffy #Kids Ambassador #Osaka #osaka

Photographed 5/26/25. It is Hanachozu of Kawagoe Hachimangu approach to the temple. It's already hydrangea season.

It was taken during Golden Week in Amami Oshima, Kagoshima Prefecture. After Activities Marin, I suddenly looked around and saw a superb view of tarako!! And this photo is unprocessed! !! The weather conditions were perfect, and it was Impression to see such a wonderful view!! Blue sea in blue sky! I fell in love with it、、、! It's a paradise in heaven!

It was already 5 o'clock on the Hokuriku Shinkansen to Toyama that day, the weather was very good like going to shoot the sunset, the first time I arrived in Toyama, I was attracted by the train next to the station and decided to sit over, but because the first time I got on the train, I found that I was sitting in the opposite direction, and it was almost dark when I turned back to the station, and I was afraid that I would take the wrong seat again and decided to use it, and after walking for about 10 minutes, I finally caught the beautiful blue hour, and pressed the shutter under the breeze of the spring evening to record this beautiful moment.

At Hakuba Village in Nagano Prefecture, which I visited on a trip, I was able to see a water mirror of Tambo reflecting the mountains with a superb view.

I went 🐟 to the Obihiro Regional Wholesale Market Fresh Water I was very excited and products, fruits, vegetables, etc.!! There is also a market Shokudo on the 2nd floor, so you can enjoy it to the fullest~! ⭐

It is the sea in Matsushima.

✨ The mysterious blue Squid spawning season has arrived ✨ From Spring to summer, the drama of life unfolds in the sea. 🌸🌊 From April to June, this season is the spawning season for blue Squid. It is a precious time to encounter a special sea scene that will remain in your heart "Only now". The first time I experienced diving was just during the spawning season of this blue Squid. 🦑 Swimming softly in the water, and a silent ritual to connect lives. I even now remember being overwhelmed and gasping for breath at the mystery of the sea. The female of the blue Squid is escorted by the male, At the base of seaweed, in the crevices of corals, and in the spawning beds set up by fishery cooperatives, Eggs that look like white pearls are carefully laid one by one. 🤍 Its appearance is fantastic, yet somehow ephemeral. There are males who swim alone. It is a male whose courtship did not come true. Under the straightforward instinct of connecting lives, a quiet "choice of life" is taking place in the sea. 🐚 Having finished laying eggs, the female finishes her role and quietly closes her life. When you witness the moment of "risking your life to connect your life", the back of your chest gradually warms up. You will be deeply moved by the great power and mystery of the sea. 🏝️ At Hokule'a Shonan, we carefully guide you to the spawning scene of blue Squid unique to this season every year. Because of the small number of people, we deliver a "sea experience" that you can observe closely. 📷 That atmosphere, that quiet impression that cannot be conveyed by photographs. Please try it out in Water. And so that first-timers and those with blanks can participate with peace of mind, The instructor will support you 💁 ♂️💁 ♀️ 🌿 At this time of year, when the water temperature and transparency begin to stabilize, it is ideal for diving. 🌊 A special Impression that you can never experience on land awaits you. Why don't you go and see the "baton of life" unfolding in the sea together? The once-in-a-lifetime story of the blue Squid will surely remain deep in ✨ your heart #VisitJapan #KanagawaTravel #ManazuruDiving  #ExploreJapan #ScubaDivingJapan #HokuleaShonan #TokyoDayTrip #JapanNature #OceanAdventure #TravelToJapan #JapanBeachLife #DiscoverJapan #HiddenGemsJapan

I photographed school plants.

When I was walking down the street, I suddenly caught my eye, so I took a picture. By taking pictures of flowers that I don't usually look at so closely, I was able to understand the delicacy of these flowers.

It is a water puddle that I found without realizing that it has rained recently. It seems to be everywhere, and I thought that there were not many people who could take pictures of it, so I posted it.

I took a first-person view of a school plant from an insect's point of view.
