Obama

Breakfast.
Thank you very much!!

After breakfast, I sat down in gront of the nice Japanese garden to write yesterday’s blog.

By the way, there are many interesting stuff in Shimizu-san’s house, it’s like a museum.
I saw many amazing antique stuff here.

Well, Shimizu-san’s wife came back to home and she took me to famous cherry tree.

Wow, what a big tree!
In spring, it will be great cherry tree!!

Next to the tree, there was a temple and I walked on the steps, the scenery was like a movie, I felt I did time slip.

I took herb on the road to home.

I put it the herb on the table.
Whoa~, this is the Japan!

Somen noodle for lunch, thank you very much!! 😀

After lunch, they took me to sight-seeing in Obama-city by car*

Chopstick factory.
When we arrived at here, the tourist bus started to gone,

so every staff there came out to say good-bye to the customer(LOL)

There was big chopsticks.

A staff gave a black simple chopsticks for free, then,

we came into this room.

we could make our own original chopsticks~!

This is the original my own chopsticks 😀

There are many wonderful chopsticks in souvenir shop.
I found 20,000 yen’s chopsticks!! (about $250USD)

These are trash from the chopstick factory, it’s free to take it back.
So I took some for something 😉

Next, we went to Koi(Carp) firm.

This is the Koi firm.

There are many Koi in the water!!
The biggest one is 87cm!!
Awesome!!

There are oyster’s shell to change the water ph.
This is the idea to making good Koi.

Next we went to Japanese jerry-sweets shop, Iseya.

When we went inside,

there are many jerry-sweets in the water!!
They take natural fresh water from underground to cool the sweets.

When we ordered the sweets, a staff took some sweets by her hand to cup.

110 yen(About 1.30USD) for a each.

Looks so cool!!
And yummy~!!! 😀

Next we went to fish market.

Almost shop closed as it’s late already…
but we went to some shop that still opened.

Wooow!
Very cheap~!!
When I saw the price, I thought it for a fish.
But the price was for a box!!
Big 3 Tai-fishes are just for 1100yen(about 13USD) altogether!?!?

It’s also discounted 200yen down as the shop closed soon.
Awesome..!!

We went back to home onece and drank fresh mint tea from their garden 😀
Whoa~, it’s reminds me when I was in Morocco.

After tea break, we went to “Wakasa princess shrine”.

I heard there is 1000 years old cedar tree.

we walked through Torii,

passed through here…

What a huge tree!!!!!
Amazing!!!!!

From the bottom.
Whoa~,,,, this is awesome…!!

You never know the real tree just from the photo….
This is really awesome…

Next we headed to “Prince shrine”.

This is the gate.

These place are one of the power spot.
I feel good atmosphere certainly.
I’m lucky~ 😀

We walked through the road…

there are cool To-ro…

This is the couple ceder tree!!
Awesome!!

we have to wash our hand before go to shrine.
This is the natural water from the mountain, never stopped.

This is the shrine.
Bow my head twice, clap my hands twice, pray something, then bow my head once.
This is the way to pray to shrine god 🙂

Then we went back to home for dinner~*

Mackerel sushi marinated vinegar*

Sardines boiled with soy sauce and sweet liquid*

We ate dinner with Australian wine 😀
