This is a picture of Mount Fuji seen from the Observation decks of Enoshima Candle Tower. Transportation from Kamakura to Enoshima on this day, and by the time I arrived at Enoshima, the sun was already setting, but I managed to take a picture at the last minute.

A very large passenger ship was moored at Osanbashi in Yokohama. It seems that many of the passengers were white. Is it a ship from the United States or somewhere? On the hull we could see Celebrity X Cruises and a large logo. Squid, it was a celebrity atmosphere. The blue and white hull is a very summery picture.

When I went to Yokohama, I happened to see a large passenger ship moored in Osanbashi, and I came across it as it was about to sail, so after a while, I saw a big rainbow at Bay Yellowtail, so I took a picture of it. It was a rainbow that looked like it was stuck in the clouds, but when I looked closely, I could see the rainbow of Japan. I think it turned out to be a summery piece.

Komaki lion dance came to Toma's Tourist Information Center! Even if you are knocked yellowtail your head, you have a cool face, and Komaki official character "Toma Chop" (laughs) is sure to bring you good luck ✨
