The Odo cottage on Lake Hamana

I went with Ayako today to have lunch with her mom, dad and brother. Besides their house in central Hamamatsu, they also have a small cottage on the big lake in our city, Lake Hamana. Here is a picture of us at the cottage:
And here is a picture after we had a delicious lunch of eel, which is famous from Lake Hamana:
It has a wonderful view of the lake. Here is a picture from the table in the first picture:Ayako's mom was thinking of selling the place, but now we've decided that we would like to live there. There has to be some renovations done to the bathroom and kitchen area, but other than that, it seems like a nice place to live. Not a typical house style for Japan, and definitely not typical for Canada, but we like it. Here's a picture of it from outside:
The path in front of the cottage is a bicycle path that goes around the whole lake、which is 60 km long.
