Babahera Ice cream @ Akita, Japan

 Akita city is a capital city at Akita prefecture. Akita city has castles. Sensyu park is just in front of Akita station. Around Akita castle and other main streets, some old woman sell ice creams.  They make instant shop around castle at summer. You can see several shop around it. A special thing is a shape of ice cream like as following photo.    A women makes this shape of ice cream in front of you. This shape is rose flower. Pink color is strawberry flavor taste and yellow one is banana flavor taste. Actually this taste is not as such natural one. In my image, it taste is soda flavor taste. But I did not feel bad when I took it. Actually, basically, I do not like banana taste of foods. But I did not make image of banana when I ate it. So, I can repeat to buy this ice cream. This taste is good for hot summer.   As I wrote, we can buy it around city from old woman, but i found it in convenience store. I did not have any hesitation to buy it or not when I found it. Sure, I got one.   

TokyoWalking : Tram @Arakawa-Line

End of last year, I went to cycling to Ikebukuro. Ikebukuro is one of the main city on Yamanote-line (loop line) It is north area of Tokyo (loop-line). Basically, most rail lines on mid-tokyo are as subway or elevated railway. So, it made my so surprising, when I saw it.  This is tram in tokyo. I did not know that tokyo also has a tram. Following photo is another tram station. I saw several tram on the railway. Most of them are painted with different line (maybe...) This tram is named Toden-Arakawa-Line. This line is for Waseda University. I could not take the tram, becase I rode my bicycle. However, I will take the tram on some day. Following river is River, Kanda. The river is used on some old japanese song.

If you can see ice cream counter on front of the shop then you may be able to take ice cream spaghetti.
