[Mini Travelogue] Colorful Flowers #ShirokumaLiteratureClub

I boarded a train while flower petals were dancing in the wind. This was on the Seaside Train, which runs inside Hitachi Seaside Park. I went to see the nemophila, but since some mountain cherry blossoms were still remaining, the pink petals were swirling around in the strong wind.

The Seaside Train. It's in the seasonal nemophila color. It's like a smaller version of the Western River Railroad.

Last Sunday, I went to Mito to see the cherry blossoms and said, 'Kairakuen has a lot of leaf-covered cherry trees, but Senba Lake is still at its peak,' yet by Wednesday, I was out viewing nemophila. The seasons have really advanced all at once, haven't they?

Also, here are the cherry blossoms at Senba Lake. It was so windy that it looked like rowing a boat would be quite difficult.
In full bloom.


Looking at photos of the nemophila fields, I thought they were pretty, but they felt a bit artificial. Like a scene from a sci-fi movie. But seeing them in person, while dreamlike, they were truly natural. A sea of blue. Beautiful. The hills were dyed in blue, and from there, I could also see the Ibaraki coast.

This is what the flowers look like.
The back area still has a bit of green left. Along with the Ferris wheel.
The blue seen through the rapeseed flowers is also nice, isn't it?
The tulips are also colorful.
I didn't realize there were so many different kinds.
The late-blooming varieties are still in bud, so they should be enjoyable for a while longer.

I think many people go to Hitachi Seaside Park by car, but the traffic jams at the parking lots on weekends seem intense. The park opens at 7:00 AM this weekend, so early morning might be the best time to aim for. The nemophila must be beautiful in the early morning.
I took a bus from JR Katsuta Station (where the limited express stops), but I heard that when there is traffic, the bus can have a hard time getting there. It might be a good idea to take the Hitachinaka Seaside Railway from Katsuta to Ajigaura and then catch the free shuttle.

I participated in the Shirokuma Literature Club again this week. Since I experienced the swirling flower petals myself this week, I am participating with an essay this time.
