Ichigo-gari!

Today we went in Tomiura, in the south of Chiba-prefecture, for strawberry hunting. What a wonderful day!
On the way to Tomiura, we could see the Fuji-san, the volcano symbol of Japan. There was a little fog so the picture is not really sharp, and the snow seems just a touch of white brush in the sky.



We had 30 minutes of "tabe-hodai" (all you can eat), in the greenhouse below and in a twin one. Several different varieties of strawberries, small and big, sweet and sour. Spettacolo!



And there was also some which was a little bit.. let's say... bigger than usual ;-)


Without too many efforts I was able to eat 89 strawberries, while talking with friends and while taking picture here and there. But for next year I want to reach 100!


After lunch we went to spend a couple of hours doing nothing in front of this beautiful view.
