"Kita-ku, Osaka" A natural scene of Japan where summer is over and cicadas die and the seasons change.

Hyogo Flowers and plants were difficult to timing, and although I visited once, they were not carpeted and were not well known, so there was no information and the only way to check them on site was to drive 2 hours by car, so I was impressed when I was able to see this scene for the second time.

Went canoeing in Hagure, Saitama and I managed to turn red thanks to a nice sunburn. Was super tired the next day after a ton of canoeing but still managed to get a good amount of sightseeing done in Gyoda. Visited Oshi Castle 忍城 and the nearby museum, bought some tabi shoes from a shop that’s been in business for more than 100 years 創作足袋千代の松, stopped by a couple of shrines and enjoyed some of Japan’s scenic beauty. Had a total blast, and one of the locals even gave us some incense as a gift for visiting Gyoda!

Many wind chimes were hung in a red wooden frame like the shrine's wind chime festival ✨ torii gate, and every time the wind passed, a very beautiful tone 🎐✨ sounded.

Nagano Prefecture, at Sujinmon on the way to Togakushi Shrine Okusha. I arrived at 6 a.m., the sun was starting to rise, and the sunlight was shining, which was very fantastic. We received a lot of pure and clear air with deep greenery in summer. I passed the person who had already visited the shrine, and when I turned around, I felt very nostalgic.

A photo I managed to take while walking today. Wasn't able to get up close unfortunately. I think it's Katori Shrine although I could be wrong on the reading of the kanji. The weather was pretty decent today, not as cloudy as usual. I'd like to go back here and see what the inner portion of the shrine is like so I guess I'll have to make another trip over here. Been keeping at my workouts. I want to buy a bench but I'm not sure where I'd even keep it lol. I'd rather workout outside if possible anyways, the outdoors in Japan is great. Even in the middle of Tokyo you can find places covered in greenery. I want to start jogging to work on my lung capacity and overall health but I really hate jogging lol. I know the track along the Arakawa River would be perfect for it too, but I'm not sure. Maybe I should get a bike since it's a really nice cycling route. Then again I'm not sure where I'd keep the bike either lol. Anyways, hope everyone is having a great Friday!

Summer begins. . . . Postscript. Summer of Japan. Summer is supposed to be enjoyed with friends or loved ones. I hope that someday such a wonderful "summer" will come again.
