::Oregon Coast::

日本語ver. → こちら

On the following day after the wedding, my host father and mother drove me to Oregon Coast♡
I didn't realize there are some great surfing points on Oregon coast but I didn't even wanna think about going in because of the super cold water. You need a full wet suit to surf there even in September. 




After about 2 hours of drive, here we are!
I think it has been more than 10 years since I went there last. My friends from college took me there before I left after graduation.

The coast area was pretty busy with lots of people who came to see the classic car show that they had on the weekend.




I don't know much about classic cars but some of them were really cute♡


Saxophone player at the beach :D


For late lunch, we had some good sea food :D
It was around 2 or 3 pm so there were nobody when we were there.


Fish and chips with stella♡
Coleslaw had kale in it :)

And after, we drove a little bit more to Canon Beach.



The wind was pretty cold already and people were wearing jackets. 
I don't remember seeing the famous rock before but yeah, finally saw it this time.


The sands felt so much finer than them in Shonan area in Japan.
I was running around the beach on barefoot.



On the way back to the car, Dad and I went in a local ice cream shop♡
This huckleberry one was so delicious. Wish we had huckleberries in Japan.
And Dad is a big fan of chocolate.


And on the way home, we drove along the coast to see this view♡





Woahhhh.... 
The wind became really chilly but it made the air so clear.


What a beautiful sunset.
We could just keep watching it until the sun was gone.

During this trip, I had more time to spend with my family and friends than my last trip. 
It was nice to see how much the town has changed since I left.






One day, we went to their favorite french place for breakfast.


Yumyum....

I even got time to spend some time with cute little monsters.


Molly, the worrying dog. 
I took her for a walk in the morning and she always looks back to make sure I'm with her. So cute...haha



And they have a beautiful black cat in their backyard.


She's named after Bagheera from Jungle Book cause she's so big that she can chase and eat Molly. 


I had American dinner (pizza and beer, of course) with the family and played dominos on my last day.


It was so much fun :D

I miss them already and wanna go back there soon♡



Thank you for reading!

::End of Summer 2017::

日本語ver. → こちら

Last two weeks of August have been really hot and felt like summer finally came!
I spent the final weekend of summer 2017 with lots of fun things at the beach.


Let's go!!!! In my favorite getup :)

I met up with my friend, Atsuko, on the train and we headed to the famous fish restaurant near Zushi Marina. 


Fish fish....


fried fish....


and more fish!!!!

Everything was so good and couldn't resist having beer with this amazing lunch♡


After lunch, we walked toward the resort area at Zushi Marina.


We had a nice tea time at Ron Herman Cafe that I always wanted to go to.
Actually I have one of their cafes close to my place but it is much smaller than this and there is no ocean view there like this one. 


After walking through a shop,


here it is.


Beautiful open area with gorgeous yachts.


Atsuko had a minty drink (virgin)
and American lemonade for me with alcohol of course.


This place is a good choice for wedding parties. 
Even though it was a summer weekend, the place was not too busy to relax.

Atsuko..... the future owner of a yacht. LOL


The weather was super hot but felt nice lounging on these sofas with the beautiful port view.


Later that day, we walked up and down a hill....


and came to Zushi surfers for a BBQ and karaoke party that our friends had!


What a cute stage :)


They also have a small beachy shop inside.


About 200 people came to the party!!
And look at this beautiful view surrounded by ocean!


It was even more beautiful after the sunset.


The party started at 4 pm and ended after 9 pm. 
My friends were so great on the stage and we had so much fun there.


My friend, Hiro :D


It was such a perfect way to spend a summer weekend. 
It finally felt like summer!

It's a bit sad that summer is almost over but more fun things are waiting for us in autumn ;)
Hope your summer was amazing, too!!
