Aoyama water supply park

Last Sunday I dropped by a park called "Aoyama water supply park". You can see peacocks and rabbits, and take a walk in the park. It would be a more wonderful park if they take care of. ⭐️⭐️

There are 13 cats. One of cats is getting on your knee by itself. So cute!!

Don Quijote

Do you like Don Quijote?

I love Don Quijote, and 100yen Shops!
I go there three times a week!!

Don Quijote in Niigata is good for shopping,
because its aisles are not so narrow compare to them in Tokyo.

And it is located near JR Niigata Station.

You know, 100yen shop and Don Quijote are close each other.
You should go both of them!!

Finally Panda Yaki!!

Finally I ate Panda Yaki today. It was yummy!!! There was a queue in front of the store as I thought.

Actually, I had imagined a kind of pancake, but it wasn't. It was a kind of Mochi(rice cake). It was chewy and gummy.

Green beans paste was sweet. Maybe you should try when you are hungry, it was a little heavy for me. Because I ate just after breakfast.

Yahiko was crowded today. I wanted to go to Yahiko Shrine, but parking was full, so I didn't go.
There were some flowers and new leaves on the trees. Looked nice!!
