Hot summer
連日、猛暑が続く。先日、気温40℃超えの中、丹波但馬地方を旅した。
The scorching heat continues day after day. Last week, We traveled to the Tanba-Tajima region in temperatures exceeding 40°C.
美しい風景と人情、そして美味しい料理に触れ、一昨年の奈良旅行で回りきれなかったキトラ古墳と長谷寺にも寄れて、非常に満足のいく内容であった。
We were very satisfied with our trip, as we were able to experience beautiful scenery, friendly people, delicious food, and also visit Kitora Tomb and Hasedera Temple, which we were unable to see on our trip to Nara two years ago.
帰路、不運にも飛び石でフロントガラスが損傷。怪我や事故には至らず、地球約３周分走った愛車が身代わりになってくれた。
On the way back, unfortunately, a flying stone damaged the windshield of our car, but we were spared any injuries or accidents. Our beloved car, which had driven around the globe three times, must have taken our place. 
さて、次はどこに行こうか。歳も歳なので強行軍はさすがに限界。旅もスロースタイルだな。
So, where should we go next? We’re getting older and can’t make any unrealistic plans. Our travels will have to be slow.
