Rocks and waves
2009-08-14 23:43:49 | 28 Comments
After all the tunnels, we get to the coast. Looking outward to the sea across which, somewhere, far far away, is North Korea. Lots of rocks, lots of rumbling water, anyone wants go for a swim in a place like this? ~_^
Some random guy pulled up, stood for a few minutes, and left. Hmm...
The pink ball that is laying on the rocks, I'm guessing, is from a fishing net.
An imaginary cake to whoever can name this car that belonged to my good friends.
More vending machines with tasty drinks.
Some house just randomly standing at the foot of the hill, all by itself.
The places which are at most danger for crumbling and falling onto the road are covered with concrete slabs.
Thats it for this post, in next one, an extremely popular suicide spot! Yay!

I'm also wondering where this is? The color of the water is amazing! O_O I'd definitely go for a swim.

Those flowers/plants in the last image look like they are fake, like plastic... i have seen them in many places in japan, and they really seem artificial, but i never saw them near the ocean, i guess they can survive extremes: cold, hot.. and salty moist, or watherver it is called in english :)
I agree.. beatiful blue water.. but it must be Michael´s camera polarizer..

Awesome pictures, as always:)
dans
You've got one more person who wonders where this is. I hope the guy didn't thinking of suicide at that time. ^^
Heferkimbo
@dans, Why would you bring the word suicide..... ?? ...
I have a few theories, well actually 2 ...
1.- He is working very hard or he has some very big proyect at work, and the deadline is very close and ....
2.- He did return to mexico for hes beloved : P how cool would that be?
and 3.- hes tired of us

It`s along the Echizen Kaga Kaigan (coast) - a quasi-national park.
These specific pictures were taken between Echizen-cho and Tojinbo.
I forget the exact spot, but somewhere along here;

I wish you are OK, and just working your ass off, or he is finishing the new and very anticipated wallpaper section, i hear (read?) that a lot of people is waiting for this, for some time :P.
Santa
@Heferkimbo, Not sure if he is finishing the wallpaper section. But he has been kinda busy latly, it seems. But don't worry too much, I think he'll be back soon. :p

Heferkimbo
@Jamaipanese, I can't believe you guys don't recognize that pink ball on the rocks!!!... IT'S KIRBY..

Ragnar
Seriously, the dude kinda disappeared, huh? I hope the aliens aren't conducting some really weird experiments on him. Poor guy.
Michael, WE WILL SAVE YOU! After FTL traveling is possible, that is.
Santa Flux
@Ragnar, don't worry, he hasn't been abducted by aliens. He's just been a tad bit distracted lately. :p He will be back soon.
Ragnar
@Santa Flux, I really hope so.
Michael Flux
@Ragnar, Why would you need to hope? :p
Heferkimbo
Yeah... me too. +1 month and not a single word fron Michael!?...
Michael Flux
@Heferkimbo, Well more like 2 month to be fair...
Ragnar
Oh, and Michael... once you do get back to earth, you have your comments anchor missing, adding #comments to the url will not take me to comments straight away, need to scroll down manually, which with long posts is kind of a pain. ^^
Michael Flux
@Ragnar, Yeah, been meaning to get around to doing that for quite a while now - will fix it when I have the time.
