Muggy weather is a characteristic during the apricot rains, not because of muddy ground.<br /><br />Sapphire, yes, I believe. Actually I once walked from Nara Park to Yagyu through Yagyu-highway when I was a college student. It was pleasant to walk along the stream running through in the shade of the two mountains, seeing numerous carved stones of Buddha in the former half. The latter half was quite tough, I remember. I took a bus on my way back.stardusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10684501661629146087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2324653069160902634.post-62661707794617972562011-06-28T22:51:51.304+09:002011-06-28T22:51:51.304+09:00Irises, frogs, a snail, and beautiful scenery...wh...Irises, frogs, a snail, and beautiful scenery...what more could a person ask for while out with a camera.

I've not been there before. The Hanashonu irises are stunningly beautiful! Your photos brought me back to the Old Japan. I love the calm atmosphere the village has. One of my blogging friends once walked to Yagyu from Nara Park. Can you believe this? I saw his photos so he really went there on FOOT!

Even though they are surrounded, most of the time, by the colourful mopheads of hydrangeas, they still keep their distance and stay aloof. Hydrangeas can laugh, irises never do it!GABRIELAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16688182298181806822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2324653069160902634.post-4152295290095835382011-06-28T13:46:11.799+09:002011-06-28T13:46:11.799+09:00what a beautiful post. thanks for sharing.what a beautiful post. thanks for sharing.Photo Cachehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17734663922538063553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2324653069160902634.post-66263985048659899402011-06-28T09:06:26.622+09:002011-06-28T09:06:26.622+09:00Indeed hana-shobu irises fit the image of samurai,...Indeed hana-shobu irises fit the image of samurai, standing with blades and with their back straight, giving an impression of something formal. <br />Several years ago,I walked from Nara Park to Yagyu through yagyu kaido where those samurais also once used.
