Summer Holiday~ aka my first holiday is here!! today is a rainy day, but we had already made plans with Boss to go see hydrangeas or ajisai アジサイ in Japanese. it is the flower of Kobe city and they are blooming now. we had lunch at sushi roll and boss drove us up the long winding mountain roads.


along the way, boss found a turtle stranded in the middle of the road. afraid tt it would get run over by cars, kind boss brought it into the car and brought it up the mountains.


rainy & foggy day. there's a big river where boss released the turtle. it crawled out of its shell and scrambled away so quicky once it touched the water! we were glad tt it is safe and happy now.


C & mi with the beautiful hydrangeas


hydrangeas change color - blue, violet & pink... so pretty!


mi like hydrangeas =)

after tt, we went to a really nice cafe in Sannomiya - Cafe Nescafe!

didn't know tt a real cafe for Nescafe coffee exists. it's a 2-storey cafe and the walls are made of glass. can enjoy coffee while watching the scenery outside. i think it'd be nice to come in winter - having nice hot coffee while it snows outside...
went back in the evening to do some last min preparation and set off for my summer trip - TOKYO!!! so excited!!!
