My dream to enjoy Japanese firework came true.

Hiroshima City Atomic Bomb Dome (Recommended PEACE spots in Hiroshima) #Atomic Bomb Dome @hiroshima_peace_tourism #Sumiyoshi Shrine @sumiyosijinja I took a compressed shot of Sumiyoshi's summer festival fireworks at 300mm from Hiroshima Gate Park. It was about 10 fireworks, so it was a bet or eight, but I managed to shoot as calculated. I wish I could see the Atomic Bomb Dome a little more, but this was the ? limit. This year, many fireworks festivals have returned. Festive fireworks that everyone can enjoy are good ?

I was surprised that it was a place that I couldn't see anywhere else. When I went to Okhotsk Sky Tower, Monbetsu looked like a map ?. I was surprised to hear that the Crab Claw Statue object weighed 7 tons. In Seal Land, the time I went was the time for a seal rice called Mina. It was interesting to go as it was so that I wouldn't mind calling her Mina. I also saw the Rinko ⛴️ for the first time. The place I really enjoyed was the location of the drift ice science center GIZA. It was cold inside the -20C, but it was interesting. I was able to see and touch the big drift ice ? and fish ? in the ice, which I had never experienced before. I also saw plankton called Clione for the first time. From the third day, I started working at the Monbetsu Tourist Information Center. I worked on websites and introductions for foreigners. On the fourth day, I went to take pictures of the famous place of Monbetsu with the office staff. - Omsaro Nature View House ? - Okhotsk Garden ? ーI went to see the coast ?.

"Village" Where I live, there are mountains, rivers, and the sea nearby, so you can learn various things. Each has a different dangerous object, time of day, and countermeasure. It will live as knowledge that forms oneself Wisdom experienced by our predecessors over the years The world you saw without knowing it will look different from the world you see through wisdom. As I get older I think so

This is a picture I drew when I went to Okayama Prefecture. The town of Okayama is quite well maintained and the road continues straight Securing waterways in the surrounding rice fields Houses live there Surrounded by mountains, I looked at the sea in a town overlooking from the mountains The sky may look like the sea, but it was the first time I saw the town as the sea. It was very beautiful Even though it is the same Japan, if the climate and topography are different You can enjoy the difference in history floating there I'd love to go there again.
