The first star

Changing from a blue sky in the daytime to an evening and then starry sky at night.
I found the first star in the evening.
It was just a tiny dot but tender light.

It's a starry winter night. 

morning moon

One morning, few days after total eclipse of the moon, There was the beautiful moon in the morning.

A friend told me a story of the day of total eclipse.

When he got out a station, all the people are looking up the sky and watching at the moon.
He said ''think about it, all the people in Japan, We were looking at the same thing at the moment. this year was really tough for all of us, but it's going to be alright. I felt like that.''

His thoughts made me feel so peaceful.
and yeah ! Although, we Japanese are such a busy people in this world, unless we don't lose the time looking up the sky and we don't lose the heart that we think beautiful when we see something beautiful, I think we can make a difference even things our eyes can't see.

sunset view

It was beautiful sunset view at Zushi beach yesterday.

through wisps of cloud...

mountain climbing

There is a mountain Sengenyama behind where I live. 

It's an hour and a half hiking trek.
Autumn leaves are not ready yet but it was perfect day for the hike.
So, I went up by myself.

Squirrels were everywhere, welcomed me.
Walked through this way and that way, up and down.....

I felt so refreshed when I got to the top of the mountain.
At the top is a beautiful view of Hayama.
You will see Enoshima on the right. 
It was cloudy, but I heard that on clear day, we can see gorgeous Mt.Fuji from here.

from the mountaintop

As going down the mountain, only like 15 mins, I got to Morito beach which I looked from the top.
Surrounded by the sea and mountains, Hayama, again I realized that it's a nice place !

Morito beach

Beautiful day !!

A beach cafe ''BAREFOOT ESPRESSO R134''' has just opened at Zushi beach on last Friday.
Our friend Teruri is working there so I visited her and had a cup of Cappuccino.
They let me signed our footprint on a new outside wall of the store !
This is mine.

 
After, I left my mark, took a long beach walk from Zushi to Hayama.
Strong sunshine ! I was wearing short sleeves and flip-flop in this November. Awesome :) 
What a good day !!
Enjoy in autumnal sunshine !!

Isshiki

a gourmet friend

My friend Yuki returned to Japan temporarily from Australia. We were working together at the Japanese restaurant when I was in Sydney.

We love eating and drinking, and we have the same taste in food and drink. so we often went out and tried to find nice places to eat and drink.


When even she was in Japan, I didn't feel anything changes from when we were in Sydney. We were doing the same thing in here, looking for nice food and drinks ! and drinking beer in the daytime ! haha- ! Kanpai with Sapporo five Star beer and Chorizo from Chozumeya, Kamakura. 

We went to a pizza restaurant ''dada'', which recently one of my favorites.
It reminds me the pizza I ate one Italy.

Margherita

Quatro formaggi

Italian Pizza and Beer ! Good time !!
She went back to Gold Coast Australia couple weeks ago.
I am sure we will get together and enjoy new food and drinks another time again !
