Summer in Japan is refreshing and soothing. Yes, it is humid, but every season has its pros and cons. The noisy cicadas, green forests, cool breeze, and lots of fun activities make it worth it. During my visit to Okutama this summer, I enjoyed summer water activities. One of the activities I tried for the first time was canyoning, and it was so relaxing and peaceful.

Veterans who know all the best spots and techniques kept reeling fish in one after another😯👏Truly impressive… They put away the caught fish so quickly that it was hard to capture good photos😂 While the adults fished earnestly, there was also a grab-and-catch contest for children…🫳🐟 Kids grabbed the slippery fish non-stop until there were none left, and some families ended up taking home full plastic bags of fish😂 Older elementary and middle school kids seemed put off by the sliminess, so the smaller children fearlessly caught the most — which was amusing to watch🤭✨ By midday, even the adults had nets full of fish🤣 The day ended with a raffle for luxurious prizes like sweets, daily necessities, and sake👏 This summer event, a family-friendly fishing tournament at the end of Obon, must have given participants a wonderful summer memory😌🌻

August 11 (Sun) Tenohira Gion Market ⛩️👜✨ Today, August 11 (Sun) from 9:00 to 15:00, the Tenohira Gion Market was held at Gion Shrine in the Kuraoka area.🙌 Products from Kyoto, Nara, and shops and craftsmen from Gokasecho and nearby gathered at Gion Shrine.😯👏 Everything was very charming, and each item showed clear dedication and passion.😌✨ A visitor said just looking at them was restorative and soothing, and that was exactly right.🥹 Some items were priced beyond what many could usually spend 😂, but after hearing the creators’ stories, it made sense… each product overflowed with care and love.👏 In the food area, the cool older gentlemen from Kuraoka were grilling yakitori and corn on the cob, which were popular, and while I was filming they kindly shared some with me. 🤤🍗 Thank you for the treat.🥰 There were also fish sushi, takoyaki, karaage, fries, udon, and other kid-pleasing menu items, and the lunch hour was bustling.🥳 Since it was just before Obon, locals and returning visitors called out “Long time no see!” here and there, creating a warm, smiling atmosphere.😆💕 I splurged a bit, so from tomorrow I’ll live frugally while enjoying the things I bought today.🤣🤣🤣
