ocean

by chaistarr

the ocean is beautiful. not the greatest for water sports but im sure they can still be played.I wet on a windy freezing day so no one was out on the beach.it was soo pretty. the waves looked like fluffy feathers, crashing on the rocks. very peaceful.hamamatsu yi semi ni yorube no name no koe (hamamatsu beach, helping out the cicada's, singing ocean) (by poet Issa)

‚͂܂È?@lake hamana

by chaistarr

people fish for ‚¤‚È‚¬ or ell, here. also i think they farm kelp to eat. you can go boating. it was so cold when i went, no one was on the lake. but it was beautiful. crashing waves at sunset.The lake is famous for eel farming. It is also famous as a popular resort place where people can enjoy yachting, jet-skiing, bathing on the beach and collecting shells. On the lakeside is Kanzanji hot-spring and Bentenjima hot-spring where a wide variety of accommodations are available. It was a freshwater lake in ancient days. In Edo era, a seismic wave made the lake open to the sea. Since then, the seawater has flowed into the lake through 'Imakireguchi', the mouth the lake.
