On Monday, Harald and me went to Kamakura to get a good spot on the beach for our cameras in order to get some nice pictures: Picasa-Album
Unfortunately, the battery of my cam was not really charged so it was lacking power quite quickly… But I had my small Pentax with me and this is actually capable of recording movies quite well.
I do not need to mention that we maybe had the very best spot in the whole area: right next to the ocean with no obstacles (or other people) in front of us, the launcher platforms perfectly aligned directly in front of us! 🙂
After this relatively small fireworks display (compared to Sumidagawa) we stayed at the beach for a while, ate our remaining crackers and waited for the first wave of people to clear the area. After some time we packed our stuff and made for the station. Unfortunately, the quite small train station was completely incapable of getting people into the trains fast enough and it was therefore kind of under siege by at least two thousand people. So Harald and me just decided to walk the approximate three kilometers to the next station, Kita-Kamakura. That apparently turned out to be quite a nice exercise because we had to climb up a nice hill 🙂 Good preparation for tomorrow…
Auch mit neuem Blog alles beim Alten: der Jung hat seine Cam wieder nicht aufgeladen. Aber der Trend geht zur Zweitkamera 😉
Und … Feuerwerk. Hab ja schon mal gefragt, ob die da auch mal was anderes machen …
“Das ist kein Feuerwerk.
Das ist Krieg.”
