Guinness having a relaxing Golden Week

Guinness went to Gifu and Mie during the Golden Week (Japanese holiday).

He seemed to be quite relaxed.

ギネスはゴールデンウィークに岐阜と三重に行きました。
かなりくつろいでいたようです。

Maybe little too relaxed...

ちょっとくつろぎすぎかも・・・

Cherry blossom viewing

We went to Cherry blossom viewing with Guinness.

Weather was beautiful and we had a relaxing time.

Arimafuji Park 有馬富士公園

We went to Arimafuji park in Sanda today. Since it was raining in the morning, there aren't  many people in the park. It was pretty cool too.  In the afternoon, the weather got clearer.

今日は三田の有馬富士公園に行きました。朝は雨が降っていたので、あまり人がいませんでした。結構涼しかったです。午後からは天気も回復しました。

It is quite a big park actually. When the weather is nice, it is really relaxing to spend time there.

ここはかなり大きな公園です。

気候がいい時は結構のんびり過ごすことができます。

Guinness swims in Lake Biwa. ギネス琵琶湖で泳ぐ

We took Guinness to Lake Biwa which is the biggest lake in Japan.
Weather was beautiful and the beach was not crowded, so we could relax. Guinness seemed to have enjoyed swimming.

Watermelon Carving at Chihiro in Fukui すいかほり ちひろ

During Obon holiday, we went to Fukui where my wife's friends from uni run a guest house.　Our daughter looks forward to visiting there and meeting friends.
Every year kids enjoy "Watermelon Carving".  Kids carve a watermelon with spoons and eat it.
This year's watermelon was really sweet and delicious.
Guinness stays at grandma's place while we were in Fukui. I wonder if he is being a good boy....

夏休みに福井に行きました。友人が民宿をしていて娘は毎年楽しみにしています。
子供たちは毎年「スイカほり」をします。スイカをスプーンで彫って顔をつくり、彫りながらみんなで食べます。今年のスイカはとても甘くておいしかった。
ちなみにギネスはばあちゃんちでおるすばんです。いいこにしてるでしょうか。
