May in Japan (日本の5月) - 2

藤枝市民憩いの場、「蓮華寺池公園」へ。
ぐるりと池の周りを散歩にしながら、壮大な鯉のぼりを楽しむ。

Visited the "Rengeji-ike Park" where citizen enjoy walking and watching the flowers all the year.
I walked around the pond and enjoyed "Koi Nobori (Carp-shaped streamer)" flying in the sky.

5月といえば、藤枝市花、”藤” も満開・・・。
でも、今年は、すでに多くの花が散ってしまっていて、残念。
そんななか、ちょっと遅咲きの藤を発見。
甘〜い香りにうっとり。

The city flower, wisteria, is also blooming (usually in May.)
However, this year, the flowers already dispersed.
During walking, I found late bloomers.
I really love this sweet perfume.

藤棚の下では、遠足の小学生たちが、お弁当を広げている光景。
ほのぼの〜。思わず、笑顔がこぼれます。

Under the wisteria trellis, elementary school students were having lunch.
Every child enjoyed their lunchbox made by his or her mother.
"Hono bono~~"
The heartwarming scene gave me a big smile.

駅に向かう帰り道、瀬戸川には、遠足の子供達。
橋の上からでも、子供達の楽しそうな声が聞こえる。

On my way to Fujieda Station, other school students were playing in the Seto-river.
Even though I was on the bridge, I could hear children's big laughing voices.

自分の子供時代をちょっと思い出した1日。

The day reminded me of my childhood days.
