This City. 

Today we caught the train almost to Iizaka

to go to a new restaurant for lunch. 

Food was so good; I couldn`t stop eating the pizza. 

Above: Fig sherbert for dessert for Chikako :)

Below: Service - I was given hot spearmint tea. 

After lunch we wandered about Iizaka Town. 

We went to see a shrine. 

We caught the train back to This City and attended

the Inari Shrine Festival. 

We bought 7 peppers, my favourite. 

Another great day together.

It`s our 4th anniversary ! 

Such a happy event. 

After work, we went out to dinner - the venue was chosen randomly. 

Thank you for these wonderful years together. 

No woman has made me happier ! 

I love you.

An Inawashiro Day

We decided to go to Lake Inawashiro. 

Still Summer here - hot and humid. 

Chikako kindly drove so that I could take photographs.

We stopped by the cemetary to pay some respects

to Chikako`s relatives.

We drank some Israeli wine - Yarden. 

It was our first time to try it. 

It was nice, maybe not amazing though. 

"Thin taste, like a new wine," Chikako said.
