konnichi wa. i took this photo near satosh’s shop “On The Beach” yesterday morning in miyazaki. the waves were chest high and it was looking like a nice sunny day. too bad i had to catch a flight back to tokyo… and when i got there, it was raining and cloudy…. ahh….
it’s rainy season in japan now. well, at least it supposed to be. for the last 17 rainy seasons, i stayed away from japan in june because i hate rain. but being that i was on transit back from indonesia this time, i came here and expected the worst. but i was wrong…. the weather was pretty nice in miyazaki for the 3 days i was there. and yesterday was blue skies all around. i might be spending more time in japan during rainy season from now on….
when i was at miyazaki airport waiting for my flight, there was a line of people waiting in front of here. so the curious guy i am, i went to investigate. i asked a lady what everybody was waiting for and she told me this special carmel from hokkaido. it was a special flavor this time; mango…. i stood in line, bought 2 at 900 yen or $9/each. kind of expensive…
then when i ate one, i found out why people would stand in line to buy this. gosh, it was sooooo good…… mango carmel candy…. can’t wait to buy more….
