Day out in a mountain before the rainy season started





Went to visit Mount Akagi (Gumma pref.) yesterday. On the way, I saw a beautiful wheat field. (this is wheat, isn't it???)





Had lunch in a famous local "soba" restaurant. It was packed! We waited about 20-30 minutes outside. Soba was delicious and tempura which came along was good, too. This place reminded me of a "tororo" restaurant in Shizuoka. Using an old Japanese house, serving only one kind of dish...









Tsutsuji season is almost finished in where I live, but in mountain, it's not the case. They have different kinds on mountain.
Many people in their 50s and 60s or even 70s? are taking pictures of them with big big nice camera. We were almost the only "young" people. (compared to them, at least...)



And beautiful marsh "Kakumanbuchi." It cooled down so much, it was about 15 degrees. Suddenly freezing!!!

Went to hot spring on the way back and had such a beautiful wonderful day in Gumma! Thank you so much for driving Nyao-chan!!!
