It's an Inawashiro Day. 
Weather was perfect, too. 

Yay ! 

Lunch Time . 

 Chikako chose to eat Basashi. 
I chose not to eat it. 

My choice was indeed delicious. 

 Demi Chan waiting patiently in the car park. 

 Mt. Bandai sitting majestically ....... 

We rented two bikes for an hour and went along the bike path
alongside Lake Inawashiro. 
It was so much fun. 

 Bandai san looking enigmatic. 

 Then the obligatory shopping / window shopping. 

It was hot enough to eat ice cream. 

 I always enjoy the wonderful taste of vanilla. 

 The trek home. 

Perfect weather for Golden Week. 
One more day to go, yet.

Walking 

We drove to the Bird Sanctuary and then chose a trail from there. 
It wasn't so long however it was very steep. 
The day was fine but warm, maybe 25C. 

This walking trail was near many cemeteries. 
The late Sakura blossoms still lay on the ground like a carpet...... so beautiful. 

After completing the first walk we went to Hanamiyama Park. 
My first-ever time there. 

This venue is very popular so we had to park a distance away 
and then walk to the park itself. 


I saw some beautiful flowers growing in what looked like a rice paddy. 

This City ..... pretty, eh ? 

Too much steep walking today ! 
We were both so tired and had muscle-ache, too. 
But we enjoyed a lot. 
Happy Golden Week.
