back to normal life

We came back home yesterday from Kamikouchi...
Yeah, back to normal life... house keeping, cooking, laundering and , of course, studying English... ;-)

We have traveled only for three days and just came home yesterday,however, I've already missed Kamikouchi.

I have a lot of things to do everyday (like the above), but, here, it is too hot and humid to do them... :-(

Away from home

4 hours drive took us to Kamikouchi in Nagano, very popular summer resort in Japan.
We are going to stay two nights here to reflesh ourselves.

There are the highest mountains called Japan Alps in Nagano.
You can see High mountains, beautiful woods, rivers flow..... birds are singing......
Everything is awesome, breathtakingly beautiful.

We have visited Kamikouchi several times, but it never disappoint us.
Unfortunately it was raining today, however, the rain made trees and leaves very beautiful.
I saw a wild monkey, too!

We are going to go to high mountains tomorrow.
It is easy to 'climb' mountains with public buses and ropeways.
Let's see what I will see from the mountain!

the typhoon has gone away

The typhoon had struck Japan. It seems typhoons are bigger and stronger every year.

Anyway, after almost three days, the typhoon #4 (we count them with numbers and don't name them) has gone away and disappeared. I can see the blue sky through my window and it is breezing lightly this morning. Do you know what we have to do on this kinda beautiful day in the middle of rainy season? Yeah! Laundry!! ;-)
