Beer Terrace in Kashihara

It's hot and humid and looking like rain, so I decided not to head of to some fireworks quite a distance from my hotel and sit in the hotels summer beer Terrace. Beer gardens are a big thing for summer over here and are basically an open area with BBQ food and drinks. Kashihara is not really on the foreign tourist map, although it has lots of historical sites. The Kashihara hotel where I'm staying does have one person on staff who is fluent in English as she is from Melbourne, Australia...
