  • summer approaches

    The rainy season is depressing,so I don't like it.In Kyoto,the humidity is so high in summer,so I think many of people who live in Kyoto often eat ices in summer.


    As you can see,I took the pic in an airplane when I went to HK in Jan,this is a tub of ice cream in the airplane food.Of course we can't buy this in Japan.



    You can see a spoon is sticking in the surface of ice cream,right?I remember that it was hard to eat this, because the ice cream was frozen hard...!!So this way I had to wait for this ice cream to start melting...hmm...



    This is a brown rice tea soft serve ice cream that I got when I went to the cafe named Tsujiri (都路里) at Gion. I prefer this type of ice cream,because easy to eat!haha

    To change the subject,I'm gonna Gifu Prefecture(岐阜県) with my best friend "mew" in mid-Aug,we'll visit Shirakawa-go(白川郷) and more in our forthcoming trip to Hida-Takayama(飛騨高山).So I'm gathering information about there.Hida-Takayama is famous for the sarubobo charms (さるぼぼ) and hot springs (温泉).I have been to there more than a decade ago,but I didn't soak in a hot spring.Honestly I don't like hot springs,so I wouldn't try to soak in it this time again.
    I'm looking forward to visiting this place!

    That ice cream looks so good! Soft serve is my favorite type of ice cream.

    I'm looking for news of your trip to Gifu Prefecture. I'm going to stay in Nagoya for 2 weeks in September, and I may go there for a day or two.
    Of course, I'll probably go to Kyoto too.

    Are people going to hot springs in summer? It's so hot than I would look for something cooler.
