The summer wind, came blowin in, from across the sea — Sinatra
A two and a half hour train ride from Tokyo to Shimoda.
A fifteen minute bus ride from Shimoda to Shirahama Beach.
A room at the Gardenvilla Shirahama pension (guesthouse).
A view that blew my mind open.
A typhoon season surf.
A warm summer wind.
A pizza, a beer.
A hot spring soak.
A full moon.
Oh. Wow. (Jaw drops and hits floor.)
Jesus.

So I got to the picture with the patio and the railing and the ocean and I literally said out loud, “Oh my god,” in a pleasing baritone.
my heart just skipped a beat. for reals.
just when i thought i couldn’t love japan much more, you throw in surfing & pizza. the photos of the moon are incredible. i’m glad you’re there to show us so beautifully. enjoy your weekend!
holy shit– that moon!
and that endless ocean!
