The weather is lovely.
The cherry blossom buds around the Hozugawa River are swelling up nicely.

This was their first time rafting in Japan.
They had been looking forward to today.

They were able to experience the Hozugawa River with all their senses—the scenery they saw,
the sounds they heard, the refreshing scents they smelled.

These two have gone rafting on rivers all over the world,
and no matter how many times they do it,
the thrill of navigating rapids is always exciting.
I was so happy to see so many smiles on your faces.

After we finished rafting, they even helped us put away the boat.
Thank you so much!
Having had the chance to talk with you so much is a treasure to me.
Thank you for coming rafting today.
