Portugal traveler's diary No.1

Good morning, everybody.
I begin the series of Portugal on today.

I traveled Portugal in November 2004.
An itinerary passes from Porto to Lisbon viva Aveiro, Coimbra etc.
By this trip, I appreciated that the history of this old country, the relation with Japan, was able to be touched for me.

This is the Edo River scenery which I watched from Metropolitan expressway Route 5.

I used a high way bus from Tokorozawa to Narita. I gat a seat right after the driver. The reason is because a view is good.

US West Coast No.20

Yosemite National Park is a great tract of scenic wild lands set aside in 1890 to preserve a portion of Sierra Nevada that stretches along California’s eastern Flank.

Bridal fall (the left) and El Captain were drawn at the Yosemite Valley. And I found the few climbers on the sheer wall.

This picture is Yosemite River from a window of a lodge.
The lodge had a large terrace. American dipper rested a feather here.
The sound of a flow deleted voices.


This is the opposite bank that I saw from the front of a terrace.
American dipper often stopped to this dead twig.
