Let's go and see the thrtles ! (6)
Cherry blossomes & Izu Andy land (Shizuoka)

At the begging of March,
we enjoyed seeing turtles and early cherry blossomes in Kawazu of Izu.
The bloom of the cherry blossomes was a little late in Kawazu there this year. So we could see them at their best.
The contrast between yellow of rape blossoms that are in blossom in the bank and pink of cherry blossoms .It was as beautiful as we looked with rapure at it.

The aquarium of turtles," Izu Andy land"is located a distance of about 10minutes by a car from the place where was held festival of cherry blossomes.

It's a giant turtles' room here.
We can see a turtle which tries to peep into the hedge.

There are their babies inside.

We can touch turtles here.

Two african spurred tortoises came out from their house and pressed their food when they saw them.

They gasped their mouths "give me more" after they finished eating all.

But they returned their house when they understood not to be gived any more.

The pond for turtles in the garden.


To our sorry, we couln't see
turtles basking there because
it was a little chilly day.
But a red eared slider appeared the face from the water to welcome us.
No, it might only say
" Do you have anything to eat for me?"

We found the sign"The coast is 8 minutes on foot from here."
in the garden.
and We walked down
the path of bush of bamboos about 8minites from the back gate of Andy Land

So suddenly, such a nice view appeared for us like this.

Local persons have just picked sea weeds there.
