📍 Cafe Yoridokoro InaVillagegasaki Main Store 〒248-0024 Kanagawa Prefecture Kamakura City InaVillage Gazaki 1-12-16 Breakfast in Enoshima is egg-covered rice from the Famous "Cafe Yoridokoro". The fluffy Renge and golden egg yolk are the best One of a kind. Of course, the Dried fish I ate with it was also delicious because I could feel the taste of the fish. Cafe Yoridokoro InaVillagegasaki Main Store also has terrace seats where you can watch the view of Enoden running in front of you while eating The Japan breakfast. It's a special breakfast that I don't make at home, but if I can afford it next time, I'll try to make it myself・・・・・ Squid it's difficult ...

Today, I attended the Kawagoe Hikawa Shrine Monthly Festival. The Kawazu cherry blossoms on the Shingashi River were in full bloom. 🌸

It's been a little while. Actually, I'm currently busy preparing for YAMATO FILM FESTIVAL 2025, which takes place the day after tomorrow on Sunday, March 16. This year's festival will screen a carefully selected lineup of short films chosen from many submissions across the country last year, presented all at once in one big showing. We will show 12 films selected for the 15th Short Film Competition, two special works by last competition's winners, and, not to be outdone, several film directors who are also competition judges made one film each for this program. That makes 15 films in total. They offer a variety of themes and flavors. Admission is free. You can watch all 15 films at no charge. Anyone can drop by and watch, so it's a great deal, honestly. I hope there will be at least one film you like or one that somehow lingers in your mind. Now, for publicity we created posters, flyers, and a visitor pamphlet. This time we deliberately unified their concept color. In spring they put down strong roots and delight with vivid color, and before you know it they turn into downy seeds that ride the wind and spread far and wide. The dandelion, also called the dandelion, inspired a color that represents the small film's solid entertainment value, its strength rooted deeply so it will not be lost going forward, and its freedom to spread everywhere rather than stay in one place—things we wanted to value. Well, that's just what the person in charge happened to think. After all, these are just amateur-made ads, but if one happens to catch someone's eye and makes them go "huh?", leading them to discover the world of short films they didn't know before, I would be extremely, extremely happy. I hope such a miracle happens. We look forward to seeing many of you. YAMATO FILM FESTIVAL 2025 Sunday, March 16 — Program starts at 1:00 PM (doors open at 12:30 PM). Estimated end time: 5:00 PM. 1-8-1 Yamato Minami, Yamato City, Kanagawa Prefecture Yamato Cultural Creation Center Sirius, 1st floor, Yamato Arts and Culture Hall, Sub Hall No registration required · Free admission Speakers: Daisuke Miyazaki (film director), others https://www.yamato-kankou.com/shortmovie/...

📍 Hakone Owakudani Owakudani is located in the Hakone area of Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park. Owakudani was formed by an Eruption about 3,000 years ago. It is one of the few spots in Japan where you can feel the earth alive up close with the smell of sulfur and the smoke that rises. On this day, there were a few clouds, but since the Elevation of Owakudani is high, I was able to see Mt. Mount Fuji and Lake Ashi very beautifully without obstruction.

Gooden-ji Temple, associated with Honda Tadakatsu, and Isumi Shrine will distribute goshuin (temple and shrine stamps) for one day only. Parts of Gooden-ji’s main hall and Isumi Shrine’s honden, normally closed to the public, will also be opened. Please take this opportunity to visit.

📍 Tama River Sengen Shrine The shrine is located a 2-minute walk from Tama River Station on the Tokyu Toyoko Line, Tama River Line, Meguro Line, Namboku Line, and Mita Line. The God of worship is the god who protects the mountain greenery, Princess Kibana Sakiya. This photo shows the entrance to the shrine (approach to the temple). Since it was the Time Slot / Time of Day when the sun was setting, the photo created a solemn atmosphere. The sunset that you can see at the end of the climb is very beautiful, and it is one of my favorite shrines. 【！ Caution! Please refrain from destroying the scenery of the shrine, polluting it, or causing inconvenience. Equipment: Nikon D850 Editing software: Adobe Lightroom

📍 Daikanyama Tsutaya Bookstore A sophisticated space and exterior that matches the image of the fashionable city of Daikanyama. It was also a time when the light was particularly beautiful, so I was able to take wonderful photos. There is a café as well as a bookstore, so I was able to spend a relaxing time. There are quite a wide variety of books on sale, such as design, painting, photography, sports, Car, etc., and you can enjoy it even if you are not a book lover. Equipment: Nikon D850 Editing software: Adobe Lightroom

📍 Mt. Gotokuji It is a temple of the Soto School in Setagaya Ward. Gotokuji Temple is famous for its many beckoning cats. If you just bought a beckoning cat, don't leave it here and take it home without Squid. (laughs) Of course, they are cute, but the number of beckoning cats is so large that it is a spectacular sight. In the Precincts, there are mini beckoning cats not only here but also in various places, which was fun like finding a hidden mouse at a certain theme park!
