Japanese noodles.日本の麺類：Nihonn-no-Mennrui

パスタpasta、蕎麦soba、うどんudon、そうめんsohmen、冷麺reimen、焼きそばyakisoba...
though　ｔhe noodles which aren't a Japanese one are also included. .

We have various noodles .
For one month of August, children are summer vacations. Therefore mothers are troublesome by the preparation for lunch.
I do not have a child, but I want to make a just simple menu because it is hot.
Thus it is the appearance of noodles麺：ＭＥＮ（＾＾）
Perhaps, in all home, the thin noodles そうめんwill be offered to the dining table many times.

素麺：SOMEN　　We usually eat the soup putting it. I put the boiled food that was the side dish that had remained the day before. We choose the favorite to be a tool material respectively.

焼きそば：YAKISOBA　　　 fry cabbage ,carrot ,onion,and noodles with sliced pork. And, add the source with these.

冷麺：ＲＥＩＭＥＮ　　　This is the noodles which are often eaten in summer as well as SOMEN.We pour soy sauce sauce or sesame sauce.

Fireworks 花火：ＨＡＮＡＢＩ

In summer the fireworks events[HANABI-TAIKAI]are held in many places in Japan.
I hate summer, but the firework is one of my pleasure in summer.
We enjoyed fireworks evebts nearby twice in this summer.




It is in the evening of the Kobe port.

Upper firework is the form of the flower. And I think that lower fireworks is the form of the leaf.

in the park

We often went to the park to feel cool because it was really hot in July and August.
I took various photographs.

The shade of a tree is cool.
It is just a mushroom!It is a size of my fist!I thought it is a mushroom like the toy.

If someone eats this, he will surely become stomachache.(^^;)

I associated a cookie named[KINOKO-NO-YAMAきのこの山].

Japan has a cookie called [KINOKO-No-YAMA],the mountain of the mushroom.

By the way, Japan also have the cookie called [TAKENOKO-NO-SATOたけのこの里],Hometown of bamboo shoot.
I like 竹の子の里　than きのこの山.　haha（＾▽＾）

One red flower.

紅一点[Koh-itten]　The literal translation is one rouge or one deep red.

But, it is expressed ’ The only female,when I translate these words紅一点
For example, we express the state with 紅一点 when there was the only woman in the group of men.

It was small, but I watched a rainbow after a long absence.

It is the view from the observatory of the park. There is the sea of Kobe over there subtly.

Others ~in Shiga滋賀～

We entered the botanical garden[MIZU-NO-MORIみずの森] before theres in full bloom after watching lotuses in Shiga. Because we were very hot on that day, we wanted to be in the cool building.(^^;)



The garden was nbeautiful.

We went to the place where a sunflower bloomed next. Some sunflowers bloomed.

Lake Biwa-ko琵琶湖 is seen over there, the back embankment of the sunflower.
Biwako is the Japan's biggest lake.



I am good at puting a dragonfly on my finger.

2008 summer ～lotuses in Shiga滋賀のハス～

It is already September. However, it is a topic in August.

It was very hot in the summer of this year. Lingering summer heat is still severe.

And, the developing cumulonimbus brought a lot of lightning and abnormal localized torrential rains this year.
This rain was named a guerrilla downpour[ゲリラ豪雨：geriragou] by news. A terrible rainfall gets off at a dash very much in the narrow scope. Some people died because of this.

In July we went to the clustering ground of lotues in Shiga滋賀. A lot of lotus grow naturally here. It extended, Manylotuses were in blossom in Biwa-ko琵琶湖,lake.These ware very beautiful.
