Tachiaoi in the Rain

I took this photo yesterday on the way to home.
It was rainy, because typhoon was approaching to here in funabashi.
In the rain, I found lovely flower.
Hollyhock is called "Tachiaoi" in Japanese.
It is a my favorite flower in summer.

A Small Izakayal

I took this photo on an alley in central funabashi.
I have never visit in this Izakaya ( Japanese pub ).
But I like that entrance of it.
Someday, I might enter the entance.

Kamiyama-jinmyosha

There are many trees in the precincts of the shrine.
I took these photos with listening songs of cicadas today.

There are many nashi pear (sand pear) farm in Funabashi city.

Farmers sell those nashi pear directly in this time.

The other day, when I was walking around central funabashi to find something interesting in summer, I found this asagao (morning glory)on the wall.I

Rice Field in Summer

I took this photo by ebigawa (ebi-river).
That place in this photo is not so far from central funabashi.
( It takes around 20 minutes from funabashi station to there by walking. )
Scenery around the river has changed.
But a few rice fields still remain by the river.

Yakata-bune is a kind of Japanese boat.
You can enjoy Japanese food and drinking under roof of those boats.
Those boats in this photos are cruise Tokyo bay in evening.
And it is popular in summer.

Tachiaoi by the Road

We call hollyhock "tachiaoi".
I took this photo last wednesday.
This hollyhock is just blooming.
I think it is growing up high soon.

Walking Road in Summer

I took this photo on the walking road along ebigawa (ebi-river) today.
You might have seen there in my photo which I post in spring.
In summer, those leaves of cherry trees shade the road from sun light, and we can enjoy walkng along the river.
