Hitachi Seaside Park in Ibaraki

Hello everyone! This post is much delayed because I was ‘busy’ preparing for my wedding which is happening on this Saturday. 😀

Anyways, during the Golden Week here in Japan, I went over to my good friend’s place in Ibaraki prefecture for a stayover. 🙂 She’ll be returning back to Singapore and I thought this would be a good chance to visit her and also sight-seeing in Ibaraki. Although it was just a 1 day 1 night stay in Ibaraki, the schedule was quite relax. 🙂

So she & her husband-to-be boyfriend brought us over to Hitachi Seaside Park. Nemophila & Tulips were in season during the time we visit. The Nemophila hill was such a beauty! Took endless photos with my phone since I’d forgotten to bring my camera.

Uploading a few shots I took. 😀

Hello Hydrangea!

Over the weekend, Y-chan and I went to Omiya Park for a relatively long osanpo (walk) and also to see my favorite flower – Hydrangea. ♥ 😀

In Japan, hydrangea starts to bloom when it enters the rainy season which is usually end May till end June. So I went to check Omiya Park’s official website and they have updated that hydrangea has started to bloom. I didn’t want to miss any chance so we decided to go over the weekend.

Saw this while on our way to the train station near our house. Can you imagine my excitement when I saw it blooming so beautifully? 😀

Took the train to reach Omiya station and from there, we walked through Hikawa Shrine towards Omiya Park #2 to reach the hydrangea garden. I think we’ve walked 2.5 km and that day I wore wedge sandals (my legs almost gave up)! 😦 Everything was worth it because…. I got to see my favorite flowers in many colors!!

I also managed to take some coordinate snaps for Kate-Katy and it’ll be posted soon. 😀 And! And!!! I’m going to change my Spring header to Summer header as advised by my friend.

Ending this post with a photo of me and Y-chan. 😀

Look at my jawline! ((:
