First camping 2018

7/30 12:29 Saw the partial rainbow at SUWAKO SA.

13:31 Arrived at OGUROGAWA valley campground.
The reason why I chose this campground was two,
there is the river for kid's watering as their strong request and opened tent site for my wife's astronomic observation.

13:34 She caught the dragonfly soon.

16:11 Took a longer time to set up because of hard ground than I imagined...

First camping with tent and tarp.

17:36 Dad is always busy through the camping...

Thick and yummy 1 pounded Australian beef steak I bought at SUNTOMOON store.

18:02 Getting comfortable weather.

18:59 Baked sweet potato wrapped by aluminium foil.



Their s'more time got started at 19:33.

7/31 Got up around 4:30 AM and started fishing around 5AM.

5:01 Small AMAGO from the moderate stream.

5:08 Soon IWANA as 2nd one. 

There were some good reactions from around the stream, but almost no reaction from the slow water and deep hole like water pocket called 'MAKI' in Japanese.

5:17 Must be escapee from anywhere.

Kept fishing upstream until around 7AM though,
got almost no reaction at the upper section.

8:18 Busy dad's time got started.


9:55 Let's go hunting bugs around there.




After bug hunt, I took them to the river for watering.
We couldn't stay there in daytime without watering even in the shade...


19:54 Fireworks time.
And we enjoyed astronomic observation also.

It was a debut day of my wife's telescope on 8/1.

5:06 I helped their observation of moon in the early morning before my fishing.

I missed two good chase at the lower section this morning...

6:17 First beautiful IWANA this morning.

Very fine weather today also.

6:25 Got the biggest nice one on this trip.
Enough as the fishing during family camping.

7:25 Waiting for kid's wake up.

Enjoyed wonderful slow time there we all.

We happened to see them just in front of our house!

She would like to observe some insects in her new plastic jar.

There were bunch or cicadas in the park.

She did catch it by hand!
Good job sweetie.

Did you find something interesting?

A kind of wild girl..

KUMAZEMI Cicada

17:16 We found five shucks of cicada on the tree in our garden.
It was first time since we built our home 7 years ago!
The younger daughter said that she would like to see it.
Let's try it tonight.

20:18 We found the one hatching in the park.


20:39 It's wings were getting extended.



Amazing beauty!


It was first time to see KUMAZEMI's emerging for me also.

20:49 Found the another one hatching.
We are looking forward to seeing next one in our garden.
