A pool with no waves or streams is an environment where you can calm down and concentrate, so it is perfect for establishing skills.

This resort pool is also a great place to practice skin diving.
Ideal for preparing before going to the sea, such as finwork, ear removal, and checking your posture in water.
The transparency is also high, making it perfect for taking photos in the water or practicing semi-water shots 📸

Extra edition Agematsu town, Kiso District, Nagano Prefecture, Kiso County "Nezame-no-Toko"

On this day, the gluttonous Kasai is an extra edition! !️ I visited the "Nezame-no-Toko" in Agematsu town, Kiso District, which I had wanted to go to for a long time! Nezame-no-Toko is counted as one of the five most famous gorges in Japan and is also designated as a national scenic spot!! Before the Meiji era, there was no Dam and granite was carved by the rapids of the Kiso River. After the construction of the Dam, the Water surface of the Kiso River is lowered by the Water, and the enormity of the rocks is more pronounced. It was designated as a national scenic spot in 1923 and managed as a prefectural park, but it seems to have been promoted to Central Alps National Park in 2020!!

You can also look forward to the cherry blossoms in Spring and the Autumn leaves in autumn, and the scenery of the Four Seasons. The water of the river is also blue, so you can see the beauty of the Kiso River.
Also, in Nagano, a prefecture far from the sea, there is a "legend of Urashima Taro"! I've been curious about it for a long time~.

It was a very nice scenic spot and a good exercise! I think it's best to avoid wearing clothes that make it difficult to move after it rains. We recommend that you wear athletic shoes and clothes that are easy to move around!! Swimming is prohibited, so please be careful. If you are in the second grade of elementary school, you can go to Urashimado! How about a Nezame-no-Toko floor with your child to see a wonderful view!?

On the way back, I bought a limited edition "Morokoshi soft serve ice cream" from this Roadside Station using milk from Kaida Highlands by Roadside Station Hiyoshi Kiso Koma Kogen! The aroma of corn Aroma faintly Unfolds, and it was a very delicious soft serve ice cream that I had never eaten before!! Please enjoy it!

From time to time, I'm thinking about sending the gluttonous Kasai as an "extra edition".

この日、食いしん坊 河西は、またまた和菓子屋さんへリサーチに行きました!!! それは、園月堂本舗 福島店です！ でも、皆さん、何か写真で気付きませんか？ ほら！ほら!!! 園月堂さんに行くので浮かれて、お店の外観撮るの忘れてるんですよ。。。 本当に、食い意地が勝ってますよね。。。 お恥ずかしいです。。。 次回は、確り致します！

園月堂本舗さんの、女将さんの片桐さんにお話を聞きました！ 創業７８年(昭和２１年)から、園月堂になる前の屋号で始められたようです。 最初は、上諏訪駅前にあったそうですよ！ ４年後に小和田、その８年後に清水の方へ店舗を拡大して行きました。 今は、清水店と平成４年に、この福島店をオープンされ市内２店舗で和菓子をご提供頂いています!!!

女将さんのオススメは、復刻した“湖城もなか”と“兜最中”です!!! 最中も４種類程あり、とても沢山の種類がありました。 女将さん曰く、「餡子も各和菓子屋さんで、それぞれ違うので自分が好きな餡子を探してみるのも面白いですよ！」と、お教え下さいました!!! 「最近は、外国のお客様が少しずつ増え、洋菓子のクリームより、餡子はカロリーが低いので注目されてきているのかも知れません。 」と、仰っておりました！

Nov. 27th in 2024
Today I went to Engetsu-dou Hompo which is Japanese traditional sweets (Wagashi) shop in Suwa city! “Wa” means Japan. “Gashi” means sweets. So, Japanese traditional sweets call Wagashi? They have two shops in Suwa, Shimizu-machi area and Fukujima area. I went to Fukujima location. Don’t you notice about pictures??? Did you? I was focus for Wagashi… That’s why I forgot to take a picture about Engetsu-dou’s exterior… That’s big mistake! Horrible!!! I’m so sorry about that. I’m gluttony. Wagashi was right front of me, I lost from Wagashi’s temptation. So, I forgot took the shop’s exterior photo…

Ms. Katagiri (landlady) introduce her shop and Wagashi. They founded in 1946. About 78 years. The shop was front of Kamisuwa station. They started with the different name of the shop. It became Engetsu-dou in 1950. Shimizu-machi branch opened in 1958. Fukujima branch opened in 1992.

I asked her, “what is your recommendation Wagashi?” She told me Kojou Monaka and Kabuto Monaka. Monaka is a Japanese sweet that is bean‐jam‐filled wafers. Also, she said “You can enjoy Wagashi every season, and each shop has original sweetened red bean paste. So, you can enjoy to find your favorite shop. Now, gradually increasing foreign customers. I think they realized Wagashi is less than calories compare to cake.”

Comet Atlas

Did you know that by 10/13~10/26, the comet was seen with the "naked eye" in Japan? The gluttonous Kasai is... I was so focused on my appetite that I forgot about it. Sorry... Then, Mr. F.N., a co-photographer, provided us with a photo. It's a 🌠 very nice photo, I want to take a beautiful picture like this! And I'm happy to be born in a city where you can see such a beautiful scene! I think it's a city we can be proud of!!

Don't you remember that the comet was seen from Tateishi Park? That scene in that movie!! You can see the lake, and the comet is falling... Right! It's that movie! "Your ◯" This is the model of Lake Itomori! It is also rumored to be a "sacred place" that foreign customers can visit. I received a photo of Comet Atlas of Mt. Shigane seen from Tateishi Park, so I will deliver it to you. There is a comet in all of them, so please look for them!
* The brightness has been adjusted.

After all, on the day of this shooting, it seems that there were many talented photographers in Tateishi Park! The lens of the camera alone is the price of one light Automobile!!!! The camera is very profound. My wife is angry with me for not using a single-lens reflex camera at all, but I will 📷 do my best every day to deliver attractive photos of Suwa to everyone

* Personally, I would appreciate it if you could teach me how to operate the camera (how to shoot fireworks and comets) with the Nikon D series (7100 old Squid Mera, but I love it).

・Tsuchinshan-ATLAS

Did you know, you could see the Tsuchinshan-ATLAS on Oct 13th – Oct 26th? Even on your naked eye. One of my friends gave to us this picture. Filmed by Miss F.N. It’s so beautiful, emotional and fantastic pictures. I'm so proud of my city and truly happy to be born in Suwa!!!

Lake and comet, can you remind famous animation movie? I know you can. ‘Your Name’ right? She gave us some picture. I want to share to you guys these fantastic pictures. All pics show the Tsuchinshan-ATLAS, please find it out!!!

That day, so many cameramen were Tateishi park. One of them told her, this camera lens was about over $6500!!! That’s so amazing!!! It's deeper than it seems… I have Nikon camera (not so expensive but it is so nice camera). I have to study how to take a picture way better than before. I need skill up my technique before my wife got mad to me… Because, I hadn’t used my camera recently. Hey, I know, I need a practice over and over, right?
