Taking a rest at Honmoku Sancho Park in Naka Ward, Yokohama. The park connects numerous hilltops that once looked over the sandy beaches of Negishi Bay in what became the Port of Yokohama. With rapid development of land reclamation for urban and industrial use, the beaches have vanished. Fortunately, the park offers a great escape from the industrial and urban hum of Negishi Bay, and has preserved some of the natural habitat that has always existed in this part of Yokohama.

A female Joro spider (Joro-gumo), which is quite common in Japan except Hokkaido. They seem quite passive. I have never seen one try to get into the house. This one was about 20 cm (about 8 inches) from the tips of her front and back legs.

She is such a tomboy. More than catching sticks, she loves to play tug-of-war with anyone who has the stamina to pull and yank until the stick breaks in half.

High-profile container-handling gantry cranes on the docks of Honmoku Pier as seen from Honmoku Sancho Park in the Port of Yokohama. In 2013, these so-called "mega-gantry cranes" were the largest in Japan, but quickly lost that status as the size of ships increased so much to require even larger gantry cranes.
