Pumpkin evacuated!

It was a magical day in Naoshima. The Pumpkin was there as usual in the morning but it was gone in the afternoon, most likely because of the expected stormy weather. Quite amusing for me but feeling sorry for the travelers who came to see the pumpkin and couldn't. The weather forecast was right: cloudy and a bit of drizzle in the morning and later even sunny. The humidity was 100 % though. The beach looked totally different when seen in the morning and in the afternoon. 
 Very white at CHICHU Cafe

 Much better

 More light

 Pumpkin missing!

 Very green

 And SUNNY

I checked the Benesse web site and in their news section there was a notice about their emergent closure on July 10, 2014. This day could have heavy rain and strong gust due to the approaching typhoon. My guests and I were very fortunate: we were there on July 8 when Benesse people were preparing for the coming bad weather.
