A lily that grew in the parking lot of my parents' house. Beautiful yet strong, I was impressed by the beauty and vitality of the lilies.

When it gets hot, you want to drink cider asexually. Summer tradition.

Photographed on Noko Island five years ago. In the summer sun, I was attracted to the quaint shops.

Scenery of Taketomi Island

Nothing can be better than relaxing near this place by sitting under the shadow of a tree on this hot and humid summer. The calm and eye shooting environment will refresh the mind. In addition many birds will cheers you. The water is so clean that you can see different kind of fishes as well. The color of the boat and the tori gate make this place more attractive. This is from myojin pond in Nagano prefecture.

I've got too many photos to post so I'm making another post today and at least 1-2 more in the next couple days. After visiting Ritsurin Park we headed towards Takamatsu Castle. The castle itself had no castle tower but it still had a really nice garden and the moat was pretty cool as well. They had a boat tour of the moat too, but we didn't think it was as extravagant as the one at Ritsurin Park and we were already tired so we decided to skip it and just tour the castle on foot. There were a variety of different stone lanterns throughout the garden that I thought were pretty cool. I always enjoy seeing the different lantern designs for some reason. Despite not having a castle tower, the turrets themselves were cool to see. After looking at the first castle tower we crossed a bridge that ran over the moat and headed up to the top. Once we got to the top, where the castle tower was previously located, we had a really awesome view of the area and I was able to get a photo of a boat passing through the moat. They were all wearing straw hats and special clothing, which I think was part of the experience. After leaving the castle and heading toward our hotel, we arrived at the second turret and it had a nicer view than from inside the castle. I thought the clouds above it looked quite nice as well. After that we headed to our hotel and rested for a bit and then headed over to a pizza place called PIZZERIA 18 for some dinner. The place had a nice atmosphere and the food was really good as well. We ordered pizza (obviously) and a variety platter as well. It all tasted great. They had Heartland as their nama-beer which I thought was nice. Don't see it very often.

Toguchi Beach on Irabu Island It's Miyako Blue

The best thing of summer is the exciting outdoor activities and weekend trips near seaside... During my trip to shirahama we enjoyed lovely sunny beach moments. This is one of the most photogenic spots where you can see the gateway of the shrine and how the two rocks connected with each other with a long rope kind of thing and in between the sea approaches.

Ishigaki Island, Kuura Ranch. Cows and horses are often in the afternoon. I stay during the day, but I recommend the afternoon.

Went down to Takamatsu over the 3 day weekend last week. It was the first time either one of us had been to Shikoku before and it was a lot of fun. I'm surprised it's not talked about more, as there's so much stuff to do. We stayed near Takamatsu pretty much the whole time and we still didn't get to visit every place that we wanted to go. The first day mostly consisted of Ritsurin Park. The park (garden) itself was quite large and there was a lot of beautiful sights to see. We really wanted to go on the boat ride throughout the park's pond, but unfortunately it started to rain just a tiny bit and they closed the boat for the rest of the day, just before we arrived... ☔️ Even still we had a lot of fun walking around the park. There were a lot of koi and turtles swimming in the pond too. We stopped by a small cafe-like building inside the park and i got an ice cream float and she got a coffee. In front of the shop one of the custodians came by with a big bucket of fish food and created a feeding frenzy amongst the koi. I'm pretty sure I saw a single catfish in there as well. After we finished our drinks we climbed to one of the best viewing spots in the park which had a really amazing view of the bridge and the pond. You can see the people on the boat we didn't get to ride too lol? The one building shown in photo 9 was actually a tea house where I think you could try traditional tea ceremony and eat sweets as well, but they also seemed to offer just a normal tea drinking experience as well. We decided not to try it, but if you like tea ceremony it looked quite nice.

Miyakojima, Sawada's beach sunset It was beautiful

Kuura Farm on Ishigaki Island I met calves and foals It's idyllic

Shot at Yonaha Maehama Beach on Miyako Island I put a shell in front of the crystal ball and took a picture.

Turquoise sea and red torii gate are two most popular attractions of Shirahama. Summer is undoubtedly best time to visit here and I had some great memories during our last trip to Shirahama.

Sea Lights Festival in Odaiba Every year on Marine Day in July, a candle is lit in a seven-colored paper bag to pray for the safety of the sea, and a pageant of lights is woven on Odaiba Beach.

The annual festival of Tomioka Hachimangu is held around August 15th. Also commonly known as the "Fukagawa Hachiman Festival", it is counted as one of the "Three Great Festivals of Edo" along with the Sanno Festival of Hie Shrine in Akasaka and the Kanda Festival of Kanda Myojin. The year in which the Hachimangu shrine's shrine goes to shrine once every three years is called the main festival, and the sight of 53 town mikoshi coming together to make a joint crossing is unique to the Fukagawa Hachiman Festival. The festival in Fukagawa is characterized by the traditional shouting of "Washoi, Wasshiyoi" and the alias of the "Mizukake Festival", in which the bearers and spectators are showered with purifying water from the crowd along the road, and the bearers and spectators are excited as one, and it has been carefully passed down by many people as a festival that conveys the essence of Edo to the present.

When I stopped at Dogo Onsen, I was guided by the sound of wind chimes in the corridor It was ? beautiful.

I was finally able to visit Shimonada Station in Ehime, which I had wanted to go to for a long timeIt ? was a nice station with an atmosphere.

When I stopped by the wind chime festival of Kogenji Temple in Tamba, the Tanabata atmosphere in the assembly hall was good and my dog was also photographed with wishes.

Aina Satoyama Park It is located in the city, and it is the only place where you can experience like the countryside, and I thought that this kind of experience was necessary for children now, so I visited every year and it was a nostalgic place and it became a filming location for the movie "Rurouni Kenshin".
