I Go to Karasugamori Park

 

I went to Karasugamori park driving through tohoku highway. The picture above was taken at Kamikawachi service area. Cherry trees there were in full bloom.

Following pictures were taken at Karasugamori park. You can know how I usually take pictures.

All photos of today's post were taken by my wife, Kiyono using her smartphone. 

I Go to Tochigi Prefectural Sports Park and Utsunomiya Central Park

 

There are several places where I play tennis in Utsunomiya. Tochigi Prefectural Sports Park is the most frequently visiting place for playing tennis for me.

The park not only has sports facilities but beautiful flower gardens around the tennis courts, ball parks and football fields.

It's fun to take pictures after good exercises.

Utsunomiya Central Park has good flower gardens. It's just ten-minute-bike-ride away from home.

The garden is also a perfect place to take pictures in spring.

 

I Come Back to My Hometown, Matsue City

A camellia flower is blooming in a backyard of my mother's house

I arrived at a riverside bus stop in my hometown Matsue city in the early morning today.

It was an looooong overnight bus trip.

It took about eleven hours from a Tokyo bus terminal to the city.

It was raining and sometimes snowing today here in Matsue city.
But, my family members warmly welcomed me as always they had done so.

Fallen Camellia Flowers on the Surface of a Tiny Stream

There was a tiny stream near Shinonome Shrine of which I posted pictures some weeks ago.

Camellia flowers were beautifully floating on the surface of the stream.

My wife and I dropped in a cafe called Matsubokkuri on the day.
