「to Lake Kawaguchiko (2)」　　

Then I walked along the lake
as I always do in Kawaguchiko.

I love to see Mt. Fuji
rising across Lake Kawaguchiko.

I took a tea break at Fuji Lake Hotel as usual
and enjoyed talking with the lobby manager.

As I always write,

Mt. Fuji and Lake Kawaguchiko
are very special to me.

I came back to my apartment at 5:30 pm.

I walked 15327 steps today.

「to Lake Kawaguchiko (1)」　　

What a lovely day!

After doing the washing, I left my apartment at 8:30.

I hurried to Lake Kawaguhiko to see Mt. Fuji.

Fortunately I was able to catch ホリデイ快速
at Takao Station.

I went directly to カチカチ山　by cable car.

I'm always in a hurry in Kawaguchiko.

I know clouds will hide Mt. Fuji
as time goes on.

Yes, the earlier, the better.

「today's dish」　　

I had a very busy day.

I worked as a volunteer waitress at a community café.

I went to my daughter's house and back three times!

I walked a lot, 15090 steps in a day.

I had a good appetite.

I made 「豚しゃぶサラダ」for supper
from the recipe of Hanna-Danna-san's

おリョオリのうた～料理歳時記～.

I used lettuce, 水菜、エリンギ, アイコ tomatoes
and 豚しゃぶロース.

I enjoyed this dish with sesame dressing.

How delicious!

Thank you so much, Hanna-Danna-san.

「to Shinjuku, on a sunny Saturday」　　

We are now in the rainy season,
but it was a sunny day yesterday.

I went to Shinjuku with YI-san, a friend of mine
and we enjoyed the photos by the members of

能楽写真家協会.

Ms. Hiroko Yamaguchi, a member of能楽写真家協会
invited us to

創立１０周年記念―写真展「能　花への誘い」
held at アイデムフォトギャラリー in Shinjuku.

No cameras allowed.

41 photos were exhibited.
Each of them showed a scene from Noh performances.

I felt as if I were in the Noh theater能楽堂
and were enjoying Noh performances.

Thank you so much, Ms. Hiroko Yamaguchi.

My friend and I were overwhelmed with the indescribable
solemnity of the exhibition.

Then we went to Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden.
We enjoyed walking there.

「rainy season」　　

It is 10 days since the rainy season set in
here in Tokyo.

We have had dull and muggy weather lately.

I've just been to my daughter's house.

On the way back I took some pictures in my neighborhood.

The sky is gray. It will soon rain again.

Have a nice day, everybody.

「to Takahata-fudoson 」　　

Yesterday, after having late lunch, I went for a walk.
Where shall I go? It was a little late.

I decided to go to 高幡不動尊 in Hino and walk the hiking course
admiring hydrangeas.

I left my apartment around 2:30.

I went to Kokubunji by bus, and took a bus to Fuchu Station.

Then I caught a train for Keio Hachioji and got off
at Takahatafudo Station.

Here I am!

It was late and there were no people walking the hiking course.

Sorry to say, I was a little afraid to walk there all alone.

I should have come in the morning, then I could have walked
the hiking course alone.

I enjoyed strolling here and there in the precinct of the temple.

On the way back, I bought 高幡まんじゅう for my daughter’s family,

高幡まんじゅう was delicious!

I didn't take many pictures this time.

This is my favorite.

「山椒の実 steeped in soy sauce」　　

Today I found some 山椒の実　on koharu's 山椒の木
and picked them all.

What a small quantity of 山椒の実！

I made 「実山椒のしょうゆ漬け」according to
Hanna-Danna-san's recipe.

I hope I can enjoy delicious 冷奴
with this 「実山椒のしょうゆ漬け」---at least twice.
