cactus
Now Playing: gorillaz-all alone
Geez,this weekend has been like a storm.
Lots of things happened...mmm.
Aaaaanyway!!
On Saturday, I went to Izu.
The weather was not so clear, but anyway we headed there, had fantasically delicious fish lunch (and fantasically expensive...), and visited Izu Cactus Park.
There were lots of cute animals, none of which are flesh-eating animals. There were lamas, monkeys, peacocks, capibala (strange animal like a rat with a face of middle-aged man...), lots of birds, and also a chimpangee show.
The entrance fee is kinda expensive (1800yen!), but it was a very nice place. Yeah, it's a zoo built over the mountain of cooled lava rocks. Of course the main feature is the cactus. The zoo started its business with the base of cactuses collected by some professors of univ. You can see huge cactuses taller than you as well as tiny cactuses as small as omanju-.
The animals are very very cute! The peacocks are not caged but freely walk the same street as us. So you can step on its long tail if you try hard. (They manage to escape very quickly with skill, though)
Do you have any idea how peacocks cry? Well, they cry like elephants...!! which is very suprising and pretty cute. :)
Among the animals we'd seen, what I liked the best was a white lama. It was very very cute. When I called her(or him), it came over me quietly and slowly with a peaceful face, chewing at something. It came just in front of me and we stared at each other's eyes for a while...without saying any words.
I felt our hearts were connected for sure.
When she knew that I wan't gonna give her any food, she started chewing the leaves nearby.
It was a very beautiful animal. Whenever I visit a zoo, I always feel that human beings and monkeys might be one of the ugliest animals on the planet.
After that, we went back home through Jogasaki-cape and then Hakone, where we enjoyed a wonderful hotspring.
Today I went to have my hair cut. My hair hasn't changed much, so nobody will notice...
