After work on Saturday, I told my wife about the Squid I took of the Milky Way, and she said, "Why don't you go to the flower peach?" I was told, and the desire to go increased with each minute, so I went. Alone until midnight in Nagano? I was a little worried, but I'm glad I went. It was a 6-hour round trip, and I was able to complete it even at the age of 54! Impression of the Milky Way, which can be clearly seen with the naked eye.

Kintai Bridge in Iwakuni City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Spring scenery. It was built in 1673 by Yoshikawa Hiroyoshi, the third lord of Iwakuni, but was washed away by the flood water of the Nishiki River. The bridge, rebuilt in 1674 with improvements, maintained for 276 years, but was washed away by flood water caused by a typhoon in 1950. After being swept away, it was rebuilt in 1953. Since 2002, the "Heisei Bridge Replacement Project" has been carried out to replace deteriorated wooden parts, and in 2004, a new Japanese cypress outfit was completed. The replacement of wooden parts is a regular traditional project that has been carried out almost as a substitute for bridge carpenters since the Edo period, and it is truly a landscape that represents Japan, which has been passed down from generation to generation through the efforts of people.

Today, 800 years after the time of the samurai, Bushido is still the spiritual prop of the Japanese people and still influences the politeness and manners of the Japanese people. Some aspire to Bushido from childhood, learning calligraphy and tea ceremony as spiritual training to become a respectable adult like a samurai, and swordsmanship as training in the martial arts. In the past, a "respected person" was called a "samurai. Others in general are simply samurai. Those who have learned bushido from abroad and aspire to become "Samurai" will be wielding Samurai swords tonight. #katana #bushido #samuraiSword

[Diving in Nishi-Izu and Tago! ] To a blue world with a transparency of more than 15 meters] Hello! This is 🌸 Hokule'a Shonan The other day, I went to the popular diving spot "Tago" in Nishi-Izu! Tago is a particularly popular area in Nishi-Izu, which is known for its rich nature and dynamic terrain. Access is a little far, but it is still understandable that there are many repeat customers who say, "It's worth going!" The sea on this day was more than 15 meters transparent! The moment you enter, you can't help but exclaim, "Wow!" at the beauty of the water. Just swimming in the clear blue sea with sparkling sunlight was a feeling that soothed my heart. And the highlight is a flock of snapdragons. Against the rocky backdrop, countless orange fish dance like a blizzard of flowers in the water. The water temperature was stable, the seaweed was growing, and the "water landscape only just now" was ✨ spreading At Hokule'a Shonan, we will guide you to diving spots that are "in season now!" at that time of year and on each day. Of course, the selection of points according to the request and the polite guide with a small number of people are also popular. Even first-timers and those with blanks can participate 😊 with confidence "Even if it's a little far away, I want to be healed by seeing the beautiful sea." "I want to encounter a scenery that can only be seen now." For such people, Tago diving is highly recommended! 🌟point🌟 ✔️ Day trip possible from the suburbs of Tokyo (early morning departure) ✔️ Safe and comfortable diving with a small number of people ✔️ Guided by an experienced instructor For those who want to be healed by the beauty of the sea, the current Tago no Kai is really recommended! Let's 🏝 go together and enjoy the view of the sea that you can only meet now #TagoDiving #NishiIzuDive #ScubaDivingJapan #HiddenGemsOfJapan #ExploreJapanUnderwater #HokuleaShonan #SmallGroupDiving #DivingNearTokyo #ColorfulReefFish #AnthiasParadise
