Why don't you go to Biwako Hakodateyama, a scenic spot where flowers spread out this summer?

First, let me say this. I have to admit, I was a bit naive.

Just the other day, I went to Biwako Hakodateyama, which is called one of the largest resort parks in the Kansai region, with my friend Rika. I had thought beforehand that it would be somewhat beautiful, but it is not good to judge anything by preconceived notions. When I actually visited the place, I found it so beautiful that I wanted to come back again and again! Now, please visit Biwako Hakodateyama this summer. Enjoy summer vacation!

At Rika's request for something sweet, we went to "Parfait Specialty LAMP". This is a very stylish cafe with fantastic parfaits in lamps, so be sure to check it out!

Rika is very happy after eating the delicious sweets. All the other guests were smiling, too.

7. There was a flower garden, so we decided to walk through it.

It looks like a jacket picture. I sent the picture around to my friends after this (laughs).

Just walking through a spread of flowers like this makes me happy. Rika-chan's bouncing smile is wonderful!
