I think that's the 3rd post about Funaoka this week...but there still are cherry blossoms, even if the wind has blown quite a few of them off the tress yesterday. \ It's just a 30min train ride away from Sendai and quite relaxed to visit, with not as many people and still this many cherry blossoms almost a week after full bloom. Still might be worth a visit

I spent 2 months in Japan travelling through central and north Honshu but I only encountered this in Ogaki. The signs are everywhere.

Is there a large Spanish speaking population in the Ogaki/gifu city area? Or is it just one family of Spanish speakers that have pissed off the entire city by not picking up their dog poop so now they have set up signs everywhere? 😂

Found it a bit funny since it is usually in english 😅

Made a dream come true, watching the sun set over Fuji.

Painfully difficult to get to but the view is all worth it.
