Takamatsunoike Pond is located about 3 km north of the center of Morioka City. The area around this pond has been developed as Takamatsu Park and has been selected as one of Japan's Top 100 Cherry Blossom Viewing Sites. There is also a rose garden and a peony garden. When I was in elementary school, half a century ago, the pond was covered with ice in the winter and was used as a natural skating rink. After the ice no longer covered the pond, swans began to come flying. Swans have already arrived this year, so I took Sachiki-san to the pond to show him swans.
However, Sachiki-san was more interested in the ground and passers-by than swans.
A woman said petting Sachiki-san, "Your face looks like a princess." Indeed, Sachiki-san's forehead is Fuji-bitai, hairline is in the shape of Mt. Fuji, which is synonym for a beautiful woman. Samoyeds look like this at some period in their puppyhood. Samoyed owners call it a monkey face.
Sachiki-san can now walk up and down the low steps in the park.
