Gathering of clams

Clamming season has come since spring, but we didn't have chance to get there for any reasons for recent few months.  Last weekend that was low tide around 11 A.M. was the best day to dig clams at Hakkeijima Marine park. It was not much sun lays at least before starting digging them, and then I didn't wear sunscreen well.  An hour later, Ken was enjoying windsurfing in the same beach where he comes every weekends for it, and I was digging clams with Kana who couldn't be there alone and feeling getting sunburned.
There were a lot of clams you can find them easily there, but most of all were tiny size and we had difficulty for long time in search of big clams that we can see at fish shops.
Hence, today's dinner soup was the clam miso soup!!  That was really delicious and we paid off in the end.
