So, long story short, on Sunday morning, the whole family ended up on a small motorboat and got a free mini-trip off the coast of Takamatsu and into the Seto Inland Sea. We left the marina, went to the red lighthouse, then to Megijima’s southern tip, turned around two buoys, […]

Last Wednesday, the kids were having something near Sunport Takamatsu, so I decided to go take a walk there. I think I hadn’t done that in several months. And on a weekday, late afternoon? Maybe not in years. So, I just took a few random pictures with my phone (which […]
Last week, I bid farewell to the old Meon, as you probably already know. I did it last week-end, because I knew I couldn’t be at Sunport today at noon when it actually left Takamatsu for the last time. My son had a year-end school event this morning, I obviously […]
Yesterday at noon, the old Meon came to Takamatsu for its farewell ceremony! It is being retired at the end of the week after almost 34 years of connecting Megijima and Ogijima to the rest of the world! Unfortunately, I missed the ceremony, but as I happened to be in […]

A few days ago, tired of staying inside, but still needing to distance ourselves socially from other people, we thought od the perfect place for that. That is Nagasaki no Hana, in other terms, the northern tip of Yashima: Fun fact: this video was shot from the spot in […]
I took this picture yesterday, late in the afternoon. I thought you might like it. Apart from that, we’re now officially in lockdown for two weeks, but it’s not the kind of lockdown you may be experiencing in some countries at the moment. A lot of places are […]
A couple of weeks ago, I went for a walk at Sunport Takamatsu like I sometimes do on weekends, when I found myself twice intrigued when I arrived at the waterfront (more precisely at this part of Sunport called Seto Sea Palette). Check this out: The first thing, you’ve noticed […]
