We went to a mountain which a local man has yesterday.
Our purpose was to get Sakura trees.
He has a lot of Sakura trees in his field, and when I was talking with him about Sakura he decided to give me some Sakura trees.
While we were talking about Sakura my son, Yuuki, was playing alone touching the soil.....

Today my wife had to do her job, so I had to be a baby sitter of my son, Yuuki.
I was thinking where we go.
As we had a strong wind I thought that we might be able to see Mt. Fuji from the west side of Izu peninsula today.
I reseached it in the web camera site ..... Bingo !!
So I desided to go to see Mt. Fuji with my son !!
When I was driving on the way of West Izu I could see Mt. Fuji, I was very excited !!

We had a strong western wind yeseterday, so I was thinking that it would be cold today.
In Japan they had snow in many cities today, but it was very warm here in Shirahama.

In our garden the narcissus flowers had already finished in the same stage of last February, but they are full blooming this year. .....

We had holidays for 5 days from January 18th and came back on 22nd, so I couldn't update my weblog.
Anyway, I took this picture before getting to depart on Jan 18th.
I was thinking that the Sakura tree had buds in this season.
And found it !
Can you see some small buds in this picture ?
I am going to show the picutre that I took today. ...
I took this out of entrance of our Pension.
We had sometimes rain today, so that the leaves of aloe had the water drops.
When I saw this tree from a distance I couldn't know that this tree had these water drops, but I was surprised very much and pleased with it.
This color, "Green" gives us a fresh feeling and makes us happy, right ? ......

Now "Jasmine Festival" is taking place in this temple, and about 1,000 trees of Jasmine are blooming on both side of a small path.
From today "Black Ship Festival" is held in Shimoda city, so many foreigners were in the city.....
It was rainny today and I couldn't take a photo outside.
So I post a picuture of Sakura that I took a few days ago.
This place is Sakura path along the river "Inouzawa-gawa" in Shimoda.
When I went there it was very cold, and there was nobody.

4 days ago, "Kawazu Sakura Festival" had just finished, but this time the other kinds of Sakura are beginning to bloom in Shimoda.
I found this flower in our garden today, this sakura is one kind of them, "Yama Sakura", it means Sakura in the moutain.
I could see a beautiful swinging Sakura in the wind.
It was almost sunny in the morning in Shirahama, but.....
My son, Yuuki, haven't had a good condition yet and he cried many times today, so I took hime to drive to Kawadu town.
Sakura blossoms finish at the end of Sakura festival in this stage, May 10th, everyyear.
But Sakura blossom is late 1 or 2 weeks this year, so we can still see it now.
We went there at around 5:00pm, but.....

Tonight, my son, Yuuki, and me went to Minami Izu town to see Sakura of night.
To tell the truth, we went there last night too, because my son caught a cold, had a bad condition and was very nervous, so I took him to drive to make him better feeling.
When we got there we saw a beautiful view of Night Sakura. Then I wanted to take a photo.
But as I didn't bring my camera, I couldn't take a photo of Night Sakura.
So I tried to go Minami Izu to take it again tonight.....
Today it was warm, the weather forcast on TV said that Today's temperature is the end of March and it will be warmer tomorrow.
When I went to the beach young people were there and they were feeling the strong wind holding their hands like this photo.
Yes, we had really strong wind today. When I was in the beach I couldn't open my eyes, because the strong wind flied sand.
By the way I found the spring on the way to my home from my daughte's school........
According to the local newspaper "Izu Shinbun", Kawazu town declared " Kawazu sakura trees are fully blooming !"
Every year Kawazu Sakura Festival has over one million people to visit this festival.
On last Saturday, February 25th, about 65 thousand people visited a day. It was a 1st record during this season.
By the way did you noticed that the color of Sakura in this photo is different from Kawazu Sakura ?......
After the dental treatment of my wife finished we went to Minami Izu to see Sakura and Rape blossoms.
It was 3rd time for me and 2nd time for my son, but 1st time for my wife to come to see these rape blossoms this year.
These flowers are bigger day after day, some of them were taller than my son at last....

When I went to Shimokamo town in Minami Izu for my buissines I went to see Sakura blossom.
When I went there last time I could not find Sakura blossoms, but today I found some flowers.
It has been very warm in Izu in these days, so I think the flowers waked up.
After that I went to the field of rape.......
My daughter said "It was very strong rainny this early morning.", but I didn't noticed it.
This is a tree of Loquat in out garden.
The flowers of this tree bloom in November and we can get the truth in June every year.
Have you ever eaten it ?
It is very sweet fruits. Why don't you try it ?
As in these days it had been very warm here in Shirahama, Sakura tree could have a Sakura blossoms.
We have several trees of Sakura in our garden, but this Sakura is about 8 years old, which is near the entrance.
Last year this tree had only 10 flowers, but it has a lot of buds in this stage this year.
We look forward to seeing all of Sakura blossoms.
By the way my son had cold from yesterday.....
From today, February 10th, "Kawazu Sakura Festival" is held in Kawazu town until March 10th.
I usually go to shopping to Shimoda, but today, I went to the supermarket in Kawazu town and saw this festival with my son, Yuuki.
In order to the information of Kawadu Sakura blooming , that I found through the internet, almost of every trees did not have Sakura bloomed.
After walking wiht my son I found one of trees, that had the flower of Sakura...
.
Today it was sunny, so I went to Minami Izu (Southern Izu) to take a photo of rape blossoms.
This place is a gate of "Shimokamo Onsen", there is a big field of rapes.
We have "Cherry and rape blossoms festival" in this area every year and "Rape blossoms wedding ceremony" will be held in this field on February 12th, Sunday. It is real wedding and 1 couple will be married.
Would you like to see the photos of this wedding? (Japanese only)
It was heavy rainny day yesterday, but today is sunny. The carpenters started to break the roof again from this morning.
By the way when I went to the postoffice, I went to the beach to take a photo. Then I found the tree of "Tsubaki" (Camellia) by the sea.
The color of red of Tsubaki and blue of sea are really beautiful.
