  1. First walk around the neighborhood without a jacket of 2026 today (full disclosure, a jacket was needed on the shore).

  2. Oh fuck. I just learned that a ship ran aground on Ogijima today, right next to the lighthouse. There is no pollution for now, but I don't know how they'll put it back in the water or remove or whatever.

    Stay tuned for more information when I have some.

  3. I think I mentioned the colony of cormorants hanging out on the coast near my house in winter before.
    Here they are:

  4. Good morning. Today's resolution: Refuse to have the nonsense coming from the US kill my mood like it did yesterday.

  5. As promised, my "Good #weekend" Setouchi pictures of the day.
    This very unusual lighting is brought to you by the sands of the Gobi desert who pay us a visit a couple of times a year. Of course, tomorrow should be relatively warm, and it'll be a day when it's unwise to spend too much time outside (even more so because the sand -already unhealthy in itself- brings some pollution from East China along the way.

  6. Good morning. (well, it was sunny an hour ago, but clouds are here now).

    By the way, the other day we discussed with the light on the water was so special in winter, hypothesizing it was because of temperatures, chemistry of the air when it's cold and whatnot, but... could it simply be because the sun is lower???

  7. Good morning.
    (why is it that it's always when it's the coldest, 2 degrees this morning, that the sea looks the best in the morning? It probably has an explanation, do near freezing temperatures affect light waves?)

  8. Good morning. It's another sunny, cold, but busy morning on the Seto Inland Sea, as the seaweed farmers have been busy since who knows how early (my neighbor is a seaweed farmer, he left home at 2am last night).

  9. I love to think this very unique boat is a boathouse that's floating on the Seto Inland Sea. Unfortunately, it's not owned by an eccentric genius, it's a luxury hotel-boat.

  10. And there was an unusual but familiar shape in the sea too this morning. I had never seen it so close before.

  11. The seaweed farmers were busy tending their "fields."

    (yes, those boats slide under the nets that hold the seaweed as it grows)

  12. Have a good evening! Wonderful weather at last and amazing visibility. Almost too good, we can even see the factories from Kurashiki far in the background. 🙄
    (if you're wondering why Kurashiki has the worst air in the area, that's why, although not many people seem aware of it, locals and tourists alike)

  13. This library boat is just awesome and has become very popular among the islanders. It's for adults too.

    (fun fact: one of the kids who's interviewed is my friend's son)

  18. You know how sometimes I post pictures of a triangular island in the Seto Inland Sea (its name is Ozuchishima, but you can call it Onigiri-Shima people will understand).
    Well, this is what it looks like from the other side:

  19. I took a "New Year's Setouchi Picture of the Day" yesterday, but almost as soon as I got home, the earthquake happened, so I forgot to post it. So here it is, one day late (maybe it's still New Year's day somewhere? Hawaii?):

  20. It's been a while since I posted a Setouchi Picture, so here is one from yesterday late afternoon.

    Enjoy.

  21. I hadn't been to Ogijima in months... How is that even possible?
    But that's the past.

    Now, why exactly did I choose the hottest day (so far) this year?

    (Well, because I know it's going to get hotter during the next two months, so if I don't go now, it'll probably be two more months...)
