550代Month of posting: 2024/08You should definitely go! A man (Mr. O) will take you around by car, and you should definitely make requests to see the rabbits, red kingfishers, and the Milky Way! You should make requests such as "I want to see the Milky Way! He taught my son, who was with us, a lot of things, and he taught me how to get flowers and how to take pictures of the sunset, and I can't thank him enough for being so dead kind to us. Thank you very much. However, I would like to let you know that the tour company had the wrong time set for the tour start time (or rather, lack of guidance), which also inconvenienced Mr. O. ☆ You should negotiate the tour start time directly with the tour guide!
