Last night after dinner, me and the Hiiragi sisters went up to the port hills again, this time at night to enjoy the view. We went up just shy of sunset to set up our picnic.

... and then we enjoyed the view. (click the picture to enlarge)

Dark is falling an the moon is getting brighter and lower

Eventually it just became black where we were...

We walked down to the edge of a cliff and found the city in full view.

Back to our picnic spot...

When you gaze up, you also see the milky way

Can you see Orion?

Alas, it was getting late and time to go, so we took a final picture and then left.
