PICA初島、熱海の南国リゾート!PICA Hatsushima island in Atami.

7/26/2021

 

東京駅からわずか90分、新幹線と高速船フェリーで
行く、トロピカルな離島。

今日は母と、日本へ帰国してから初めての母子旅。
朝の5時半に気合を入れて東京を出発。
新幹線で30分。
熱海駅から熱海港までは、タクシーで約10分。定期バスも出てるから安心!
熱海港に着いたら高速フェリーで30分で、初島へ♪
Picture
Picture
​フェリーに無事乗船!
もし船酔いが気になる方は、乗船の30分前に服用しよう♪
潮風が吹いて、磯の香りがいい感じ。
Picture
初島に上陸。そこに広がる景色は、とっても新鮮で心もわくわく。
初島のフェリー発着場所周辺には、海釣りのできるスポットや、
お魚が買える商店や、新鮮魚介を中心とした老舗感のある小さな飲食店が、並んでるよ!
港のここの海の中にも、カラフルな魚がいっぱい!

Picture
ここのお店のかき氷はマスト!とろける夏日和、PICA初島のリゾートは船を降りて、左回りに
10-15分のんびり歩いた場所にあるので、ここで冷たいかき氷や無添加ところてんで
夏の涼しさを手に入れるといいかも♡日傘や帽子も、持参をおすすめ!
ごみはしっかり、ごみ箱へ♪
Picture
Picture
PICA初島のサインが見えてから、のーんびり生い茂る熱帯植物と、トカゲや鳥たち、
ラムネカラーの海と、波が不定期に岩にぶつかりシブきを上げるところや、
​形をとどめない波が永遠に打ち寄せる光景を楽しむことが出来ます♪

​絶景オーシャンビューの露天風呂、【島の湯】

PICA初島唯一の180度の大海原と大空を見渡せる
オープンスペースは、日本じゃないみたい。

​ひろーい【海のプール】

大人から子供まで楽しめる、浅いプールも浮き輪や、浮かぶパステルカラーのボールも豊富!
このプールの水は、海水になってて、地球にも優しい。海水で泳げば、元気も出そう笑
最近では、子供が楽しめそうな、プールならではの噴水の遊び場も設置されたみたいです。

Hotel New Otani Makuhari - Shell Pool

7/9/2021

 

ホテルニューオータニの野外シェルプールが間もなくオープン!
7/17から~

I have been to the hotel new Otani at Makuhari shell pool opening event the other day! 
Felt like we were on a nice vacation being in this relaxing fantasy space.
I have to come back this summer when Japan's corona restrictions lift up.  
一足先に、ホテルニューオータニ幕張の野外シェルプールオープンイベントに
遊びに行ってきました。
ライトアップがすごくきれいで、海外バケーションに来たような雰囲気と
スタッフさんたちもすごく親切でフレンドリー!
とても綺麗な施設と、コロナ対策で、さすが日本て思いました。
コロナの宣言が緩和されたらまたすぐに行かなくちゃ♡
お勧めスポット!

可愛い女子たちがプールサイドで涼む中、私と友人は
がっつり久々プールに飛び込んで楽しいひと時を過ごしました。
そのあとは、隣の屋外あったかジャグジーに浸かって温まって
ガールズトーク。
​楽しかった~♡
There were many people relaxing and enjoying the music and mingling, me and my girl were 
jumping into the water and had so fun more than enough lol 🤣
After that we could warm up at the hot jacuzzi beside this pool.  
Picture
Picture
ちなみに、日本のプールはタトゥー制限が厳しくなる一方。
しっかり肌色ボデイーテーピングでワンポイントタトゥーを見えないように
​配慮していったよ😂
By the way, having a tattoo(s) in Japan might be a little headache. 
We need to cover them up when you go in to public swimming area like hotel pool, beaches,
and hot springs.  Make sure to bring a body tape to hide them up or wear a long sleeve swim suits is a must. 😎

青の洞窟 Way to the Blue Cave - Ishigaki Island, Okinawa Japan

4/13/2018

 

Please click me to support my blog!
Picture
Welcome back to my travel blog. =) I haven't posted for so long, I was busy greeting my family from Tokyo and touring around the island. Today's blog is about the Blue Cave in Ishigaki island. 
 久々の投稿になります!家族や友達が遊びに来ていて、島中を駆け巡っていました。
今日のブログは、石垣島にある、青い洞窟へ行ってみた時の様子です。
Picture
Picture
Picture
  The Blue Cave in Ishigaki is located just near Yaeyama Palm Tree Grove. 
We parked our rental car at Yaeyama Palm Tree Grove parking lot, about 10 minutes walk straight down the hill and go through a little jungle to the beach.  
​ (Please note that the parking lot closer to the beach is an official parking lot for tour companies. ) 
石垣の青の洞窟は、丁度八重山ヤシの木グローブの道を挟んだ反対側にあります。
レンタカーを、
道を入った坂の上に位置するヤシの木グローブの駐車場にレンタカーを止め、
約10分ほど坂を下り、道を挟んでまた下がる。
​ジャングル道を通り抜けて、ビーチへ続く右側の細道から海に出よう。
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
私が行ったときは、普通のビーチサンダルだけど
やっぱりおすすめはマリンシューズ!
サンゴの破片や、貝、ヒトデやナマコやその他もろもろ踏まないようにね^^
Picture
Picture
 It is an easy access to the Blue Cave that you can just walk there if it is low tide.
I recommend wearing marine shoes just in case, but I was fine wearing beach sandal this time. 
To the right side following the seashore for 3 - 5 minutes.  
You will see wild sea life while walking, watch out and do not step on the coral and star fish, sea cucumber and a little crabs and so on. (*v*)
ビーチに出るとこの時間帯は、干潮でした。干潮だと、ブルーケーブまで徒歩3から5分。
マリーンシューズを履いて行くことをお勧めするけど、無かったのでビーチサンダル!
一回二回、歩いてる途中に脱げたけどw
到着までの間、自然の海の生き物が見れます、小さいヒトデやナマコ、ヤドカリとか蟹さん。
Picture
Picture
This is the Blue Cave!! It was more like emerald green / blue! 
There were so many cobalt blue and other little fishes swimming in the cave. 
青の洞窟に着いたー!青と言うより、エメラルドでした^^
こバルトブルーとか、小魚が沢山泳いでいました♡
Picture
We went snorkeling after checking out the Blue Cave! It was amazing! 
Lots of sea life in between these rocks. and... I kind of saw a... grey, and probably about 1.5 meter of a fish.. looked just like a shark.  I still don't know what it was! 
青の洞窟を見た後は、シュノーケリングに繰り出しました。近くで、シュノーケリングのツアーの団体がいたので、その周辺をぷかぷか・・・
沢山の種類のお魚たちがたっくさん泳いでいて、綺麗だったよ。
が、1.5メートルくらいの、とてもサメに似た灰色の魚が海底20メートルくらいのところを、のそーーーっと、泳いでいったよ!びっくり。何だったんだろう・・・

Kiyomizu Oyado Shichifuku, Kyoto Japan

5/17/2017

 
Picture
  May 2017 I visited Kyoto for the first time in the longest time, me and my family decided to stay at "Oyado Kiyomizu Shichifuku" in the central Kyoto.
  Where we could feel a lot of Japanese traditional atmosphere.  The private space that is limited to one group a day.  Great for family, friends, and couples! 
We also tried Japanese green tea class at this *Oyado Shichifuku which Shichifuku is providing option for visitors.  (*oyado=
accommodation)   We have tried different types of japanese green teas, just like wine tasting! Which tea goes well with certain types of meals and sweets etc. It was absolutely an amusing class! 
The most importantly there were quite many popular sightseeing spots to delicious local restaurants, convenience stores around Oyado Shichifuku in walking distance.  In this Kyoto blog I listed up must places to eat, to see, and recommended sweets gifts!
​  Hope you will find something interesting for your next Kyoto trip!  xoxo

If you need a parking spot, try "Fruit Park Parking" that is 5 mins away by walk.

 3 Must Try Food around Oyado Shichifuku 

1. Issen Yoshoku (10 mins by walk)

3. Kyoto KatsuGyu  (7 mins by walk)

Very popular Kyoto's original black wagyu beef katsu. Enjoy with wasabi soy! (There's more sauce options to enjoy!)  They deep fry  wagyu beef for only 60 seconds and that's the popular way to eat at this place.

2. Kiyomizu dera (5 mins by walk)

It was still under construction, but still a magnificent view.  Probably the best Kyoto has to offer. 
Enjoy the gates and status that are before the proper temple itself.

Please don't drink the water unless it says drinkable sign...lol

3.  Ninenzaka (5 mins by walk)

It was named when this slope was maintained in year of 807.  Because this slope is located just down the San-nen zaka, 3 year slope.  â‡“ My mini sister @iamriririri
Picture
There is a myth that if you fall down in Ninen-zaka, you will die in 2 years. 
​It is a message for people to take special care not to fall down on stone steps and slope...

​4.  Fushimi Inari Shrine (17 mins by car)

​The shrine sits at the base of a mountain also named Inari which is 233 metres above sea level, and includes trails up the mountain to many smaller shrines which span 4 kilometers and takes approximately 2 hours to walk up.
Picture
It's massive with loads little beautiful praying spots where people actually go to pray. There were nice selection of food right by the entrance.

Countless shrines...

 5.  Kinkaku-Ji  (28 mins by car) 

Officially named Rokuon-ji, is a Zen Buddhist temple in Kyoto, Japan.  It is one of the most popular buildings in Japan.  Attracting a large number of visitors annually.
Such beautiful temple. However, it was very crowded when we visited in mid May 2017. Expect pushing and shoving to get a good view or photograph of the temple. â€‹

​​6.  Arashi Yama (45 mins by car)

​It is a small town, but a full day worth of activities. There's shrines and gardens, the bamboo trail, a park, lunch by the river, river boat rides, Monkey Mountain.

It was an amazing bamboo street. We were there in the afternoon, we could manage to find a nice spot to take beautiful photos. It was breathtaking walk by thousands of bamboos.
