Re: Hydrangea Flowers at Lakeside of Yogo is Now Three-Quarter in Bloom (余呉湖畔の紫陽花は7分咲です!)

Since we have already entered into the long rainy season, it became a bit muggy and warm summer day today at lakeside of Yogo. As you can imagine so, hydrangea flowers have started blooming at the garden around the lake, so a lot of sightseers were coming today for seeing it from not only Shiga but other prefectures, too. I thought the color of the flowers was almost blue, a bit different from the one of usual years. This might be because the soil PH level differs a bit year by year.
On the way back from the site, I happened to see a foreigner who continued seeing the landscape around the lake, sitting on a bench. So, just out of mere curiosity, I addressed him, “Hi, did you come for sightseeing?” The middle-aged gentleman smilingly replied, “No, Just for fishing. But I’ve often come to the lake. Because it sure is AMAZING!”
