Last Updated August 29, 2023
Day 5
I returned to the west area
After two days of activities in the eastern area, I returned to the western area.
He seemed to be used to a place different from Genkaida Park, and he actively mowing the grass.
During the day, Kai-kun is still hot and often in the shade.
Today, I was able to see a lot of moving around.
Day 6
Finally, Gen-kun and I-kun have reached their final day.
He was eating his favorite foods such as kuzu leaves.
In particular, Gen-kun struggled to cut grass by scraping tall Japanese pampas grass.

Summary
Results of the struggle between Gen-kun and I-kun
It was actually four days (to the east area during the two days), but he worked hard. I think it was a very difficult task because there were many days when it exceeded 30°C. Even so, he ate a lot of his favorite kuzu leaves. Weeding gradually progressed from the area where the water area was located. If I had a little more time, I would have been able to proceed more.
