The Stitch Group Becomes the Hiking Group

Yesterday, the stitch group met for a hiking trip to Nihondaira Yume Terrace. We had a beautiful day for our fun adventure.



This is the start of our hike.




We stopped from time to time to enjoy the view.



Here we can see the tea fields.




Another place we could look down on Shimizu Port and Miho.




Here we are, almost at our destination.








From the balcony of the Terrace building, we could see for miles.




We ate our lunch under this white tent thing.









Under the white tent, we ate our lunches.





Behind us was the Terrace building.



Mt. Fuji above the clouds.




Some of us had ice cream cones, one of us had a beer.





After that, it was time to head down.



We stopped on the way down to check out the Dry Flower Gallery.






What a fun day!  Our next get together will be a new stitch project, but we are already planning another hiking trip.

Lovely views! The purple pom-pom flowers are striking. I wonder what they are?

This is a beautiful and very interesting hike -- and I'm so glad you can enjoy your stitching group in different environments as well. It doubles the pleasure.

thanks for sharing your beautiful day hiking! I loved the photo of the flowers - especially the purple globular Allium (onion) flowers. These are flowering here where I live right now, too. Funny how something as ephemeral as a flower can make the world feel smaller.

It is so nice to see everyone without a mask! I hope you felt safe. The views from the top is lovely. I am sure you all had a wonderful time.

Beautiful photos from your hike, how far did you end up walking?
Beer or ice cream, that would be hard to choose which one!
