The following 2 are the one of which I took a picture from Awaji service area, but unfortunately we have the inclement weather at the same time, and an opposite bank can't take a picture beautifully.

晴れた日は向こう岸が近く見えるけど、雲に遮られるとホントに遠く感じますね

When clearing up, the other side looks close, but you find to be interrupted by cloud really far, right?

明日がいい日でありますように・・・。

As tomorrow will be a good day....
