みなさまこんにちは。
こぎくでございます。
バイクの日に投稿した写真の日(ややこしい💦)、高野山にお墓参りに行きました。
お盆よりひと月早い七月のことです。
関西ではお盆は八月、旧盆にお参りをします。なので、以前は八月に行っていたのですが、昨年の八月が暑すぎて、今年は少しでもマシなうちに、と、七月に行くことにしました。
ちょびっとだけ早起きして出発。
この日通った道が本当に素敵で!
何度もカブを停めて写真ばかり撮るものだから、なかなか着かない(苦笑)

A while ago, we rode our motorcycles to Koyasan to visit my husband's family grave.
It was in July, about a month before the Bon Festival.
In Kansai, people usually visit graves during in August—the old Bon period.(8/13-8/16)
We used to go in August too, but last year was unbearably hot, so this year we decided to go earlier, while the weather was still a bit more bearable.
Woke up earlier than usual and Let's head out!
This time we took the local road which go through the mountain.
I couldn't resist to stop and take photos many times!
The forest path was so serene and beautiful — the green of the trees, the light spilling through the leaves, and the sound of the river all came together perfectly.
Copilot draws this for us.
Not bad but too much pretty lol!
Actually we are just an old couple!
AI加工してみました。
きれいすぎ(笑)
AIってヨイショするのね〜
お山の上は少し曇りがちで、気温もマシでした。

Up in Koyasan, the weather was a bit cloudy and the temperature was much lower than in city and was very comfortable for us.
After paying our respects,it's lunchtime!
This time we visited this place.
Yum!
停車場さんのランチ🍽️
美味しゅうございました😋

My look for Super Cub riding on this day.
It was getting hotter on our way home.
We took a little break and grabbed Famima Frappe to cool off our bodies.
That saved us actually!
I usually stay away from cold drinks, but in that kind of heat, ice was the only way to survive

帰り道、下界に降りたら途端に暑い&熱い!
ので、寄り道して、ファミリーマートでフラッペを半分こ。
生き返った〜
冷たい物は普段は摂らないようにしていますが、あの暑さの中では氷無しでは無理!
その後、ようやく帰り着いて、午後はもうバタンキューでした。
After that, we finally made it back home, and we completely crashed for the rest of the afternoon.
We need much more stamina for the next summer riding!
来年の夏も乗るならもっと体力つけなくてはと、強く思った令和八年の夏でした。
ごきげんよう。
