On Sunday morning, I went to my family temple.
I was very fascinated by so many lotuses in the pond. The temple is famous for the lotuses and I know the lotuses are in full bloom in July. But I completely forgot about it.
They are surprisingly beautiful. I didn't have a digital camera with me but I took pictures with my cellphone. If you are interested in these loteses, please let me know. I will show you the place where I saw them.
*英語ミニ知識:「菩提寺→a family temple」日本語の方が趣がありますね。ブライアン先生に蓮の写真を見せて「lotus と water lily でどちらだと思いますか?」と聞きましたら“I don't know much about the names of flowers and furniture.”という答えが返ってきました。花の英単語は私の方が豊富かもしれませんね^^
*お花ミニ知識:「蓮→lotus」「睡蓮→water lily」花をみると、茎を伸ばし水面より上の方で咲くのが「蓮」、水面に咲くのが「睡蓮」です。*
