    寺泊方面から弥彦神社に向かう途中で立ち寄り。 地元のおばあちゃん達が端の方で楽しげにおしゃべりしていて、ほのぼのした雰囲気です。 ドラマ「下町ロケット」ロケで使用されたトラクターが展示されてます。季節イベントとして天神講のお菓子が販売されてました。 道の駅オリジナルのそば粉のアイスクリームは、そばの風味がほんのり香り、甘過ぎず、ドライブ休憩で食べるにはぴったりです。

    Niigata Sanjo-shi Shimohonai 4035

    11:00オープンなのですが早めに着いたため道の駅の中やその外にあるプロの造園が作る日本庭園を散歩しながら散策。花や植木、流木など購入することができるようです。11:00になり店に行くとすでに予約客で沢山いました。予約外で犬も一緒だったのでテラス席かと思ったら店内の薪ストーブがある席に座っても良いとのことでラッキーでした。外は日差しが強く暑い日だったので犬にとっても人間にとっても涼しく過ごせて快適...
