Chiba - Inba marsh and Sakura town
So, for my first real bicycle outing I hopped on a train from Nippori, and hopped off it an hour later in Sakura. From there, I unfolded my bike and rode through the pleasant town of Sakura, up over the hills passing farms and allotments, then made my way past rice fields to Inba marsh. Then I crossed a bridge and headed up some more hills to see some more farms and secluded allotments. A marvelous blue sky all the way, I was truly blessed on my first ride in the countryside. Here are some pictures. Personally, I think the lady painting infront of the windmill is my best yet. Unintentionally, of course.
My characters are coming along now. I sat down by the windmill and ideas flowed from me. It's very difficult to come up with something 100 percent original though. Just about any object/living thing has been made into a character in Japan, from walls to bread. Is there anything left?
