The Japan Meteorological Agency announced that Tokai area including Shimoda got into the rainy season on May 28th, but now we are in the long intermission.
The weather forecast says the sun will stay in a next week and it's getting hotter and hotter over the weekend.
By the way, I took this picture on the slope on the other side of Pension Sakuraya.
The flowers of hydrangea are changing its color and getting more beautiful.
I love this stage of coloring better than full colored and full bloomed hydrangea.

I took this picture this morning.
Last night all rooms were occupied with only foreigners, and English, German and French were spoken at breakfast this morning.
I was not able to go to Black Ship Festival because of my job after all, but I had a great time with a lot of foreign customers at Pension Sakuraya this weekend.
If I spoke not only English but also German and French it would be much more excited to have good comunication with them.

They came from New York to Japan for the 1st time and stayed at Sakuraya for 2 nights.
After 2 nights stay in Tokyo they came to Shimoda because she wanted to surf in Shimoda.
We are very sorry, but it had been rainy on the 1st and the 2nd day, so she was able to surf in only the last morning.
They are ineterested in Japanese cooking, and she sometimes make a rice in her home.
When they had breakfast in the last morning she asked me to make a rice ball, because it is hard for her to make it, and she always too big rice ball.
So I showed them how to make a rice ball after breakfast, because we didn't have any other customers this morning.
They tried to make some rice balls and made very good ones.
They went to Kyoto and Osaka after check out.
Have a nice trip in Japan!
Thank you very much for staying with us.

My daughter has now a small trouble on her knee by bike accident several days ago.
Of course she can walk as usual, but it is a little hard for her to ride a bike.
So I took her to the school by my car again this morning.
I took this picture on the way home and I was able to see the Oshima island clearly, but it's still very cold today.
Why not?
I have been thinking about the weather, it was changed before noon.
The blue sky goes well with Shirahama beach.

We have very cold rain here in Shimoda this morning.
The TV news said that they had first blooming of Sakura in Fukuoka in Kyushu island, a southern part of Japan yesterday.
There are a lot of kinds of Sakura in Japan, and the most famous and popular 'Someiyoshino' will start blooming from now.
I took this picture in our garden this morning.
This kind of Sakura called 'Kawazu Sakura' is now going to finish blooming, and this tree has already had fresh green leaves.

Today we got a great present from Germany.
Our customers who live in German and have stayed at Sakuraya three times sent us these two bottles of wine.
They are made in German and one of them is an icewine.
I have never drunk icewine and have not tried them yet.
So we are looking forward to drinking them.
Thank you very much.

They are from Germany and some of them have lived in Tokyo since last July.
It was the 2nd time for them to come to Shimoda, and they stayed at Sakuraya for the 1st time as their friends who stayed at Sakuraya 2 years ago recommended them our Pension.
When they checked out they said, "We will come back here with my sister in law this summer."
We were very glad to hear that!
Thank you for staying with us and we are looking forward to meeting you in summer.
