Now that summer had come to the three dull buddies, real men as they were, they braced themselves up and decided to go on a summer trip.
“I wanna see alligators," one of the men said.
“I’d like to go to a queer kind of place,” said the second.
“I think I would prefer to see something nasty,” the third one said.
Well in that case, the eastern side of the Izu peninsula, up north near the mainland, is definitely the place to go.
Alligators one can see at the Atagawa Tropical & Alligator Garden (Banana Wani-en),
the Ayashii Museum (Ayashií Shonen Shojo Hakubutsukan) in Ito is pretty queer,
and there’s no nastier place around than the Atami Adult Museum (Atami Hihoukan).
The three simpletons boarded a bright red Mazda Axela - Wherever that came from - and embarked on their overnight trip to eastern Izu.
It was such a fun time they had on their summer excursion!

Daidō Moriyama (Moriyama Daidō, born October 10, 1938) is a Japanese photographer noted for his images depicting the breakdown of traditional values in post-war Japan.
Born in Ikeda, Osaka, Daidō Moriyama studied photography under Takeji Iwamiya before moving to Tokyo in 1961 to work as an assistant to Eikoh Hosoe. He produced a collection of photographs, on "Nippon gekijō shashinchō" Though not exclusively, Moriyama predominantly takes high contrast, grainy, black and white photographs within the Shinjuku area of Tokyo, often shot from odd angles. Moriyama's photography has been influenced by Seiryū Inoue, Shōmei Tōmatsu, William Klein, Andy Warhol, Eikoh Hosoe, the Japanese writer Yukio Mishima, the dramatist Shūji Terayama, and Jack Kerouac's "On the Road".
