Hiking @ Mt. Fuji

Pictures of Mt. Fuji where one of spiritual places in Japan.
You can drive to halfway up the mountain. It's about two hours hiking course from there. Many people like to try climbing up Mt. Fuji. It's a popular way that people spend a night at a cottage and start around 2am to see sun rise at the top, however I have never tried it.

Reinforcement work is under way as mountain slope is sliding down.
I didn't make any effort, instead I just felt autumn there.
It was a clear day after rainy days that took off orange osmanthus petals.

Rain cleanses us and brings next season.

Thank you very much, Mark.
I realized that it was better to take photo of Fuji from other location though, hiking was fun.

富士山、僕は五合目までしか行ったことがありません。Momoさん、すごい！日本の秋ですねぇ。ミノルタ、いいですねぇ。僕もそれ、欲しいんです。写真きれいです。僕の心に残る紅葉は埼玉県の秩父で見た黄色に輝く山、『息をのむ』というのは本当です。カナダのカエデの紅葉も有名ですが、4年間で14回も行ったのに一度も見ることができず、それを言うと周囲の人が笑います。

Oh Japanese..

I've been reading Hard boiled Wonderland and the End of the World by Haruki Murakami lately. His expressions are soooo good that I can't help making a note while I'm reading. His descriptions are amazing. I read the book on the commuting train and if there's any line that I am impressed, I take out my mobile and text it to my PC e-mail. Thus, I'm busy on the train, especially my commuting hour has been shorted since I moved. I miss long time train trip a bit. My neighbourhood photos. -Japanese- 今村上春樹の『世界の終わりとハードボイルドワンダーランド』を読んでいます。 彼の表現力は素晴らしくてついついメモをとってしまいます。 彼の本は評価が好きな人は大好き、良さが分からない、と分かれますが 私は彼の表現に感動する事が多いです。 通勤電車の中で読んでいて、素敵だ、と思うラインがあると 携帯を取り出し自分のパソコンにメールをしてしまいます。 なので電車でとっても忙しい・・。 引っ越して通勤時間が短くなってしまったので 以前のような長い通勤時間も懐かしい気がします。

Aomori

The northernmost part of Honshu(Main Land). It's about 700km away from Tokyo. Where The lantern festival take place. Where Tsugaru Shamisen originated. 8 hours driving. Easy driving. Food! Pink flowers and shrine. Pink pink pink. Season goes a little later than Tokyo. Plants took over the house. How pretty you are. This mountain called Osorezan , which is one of spiritual places in Japan.
