!! Snow covered mountain
!! Did you surprised that
Last week, I went to Komagane in Nagano prefecture with my family.
Nagano prefecture is north from Shizuoka prefecture where I live.
We went over a mountain road to Komagane city,it takes about 4 hours we didn't use highway this time.
Komagane city at the foot of Komagatake(mountain) and high mountains, there is many people come to tramping and climbing the mountains also enjoy skiing in the early summer season.
・・・・our plans are here, have fan with view of snowy mountains while driving a mountain road and enjoy Oncen(hot spring)
at the Ryokan(Japanese style hotel), so just we were easy going to short trip to here with our kids.

a beautiful mountain is there!!! in front of us!!, why we shouldn't climb!? why not!?
in front of us!!, why we shouldn't climb!? why not!?This first photo↑↑↑ is indeed proof of we did it,yes we decided to take aim at top of the Komagatake,we went through with we wearing light clothing next day morning. I took that photo at the top of mountain,its 9,698ft(2,959m).
We don't climb by foot. we used a rope-way to top of the Komagatake.↑↑↑There is bus terminal to get the ropeway terminal.
We should catch the bus because there is a restricted area expect exclusive buses for the environments safeguards.
We should catch the bus because there is a restricted area expect exclusive buses for the environments safeguards.(It is about 4000yen:US$43.00 for round trip bus and ropeway)
This rope-way is the first one at the mountain in Japan installed 40 years ago or more.
It is more high speed than the expectation because it moves on the about 2km in seven minutes and thirty seconds.
That was really fun and we could see a wonderful view from in the rope-way.
This photo is took after get off the rope-way.

↑↑↑↑Can you see the town? that is Komagane city, and over the this town these are class of 9842ft (3000m) mountains.
This are is middle of Japan and the higher mountains ranging include Mt,Fuji.(Mt, Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan;12,388ft(3,776m)).
These mountains where is over there,is called the south Alps and this side of Komagatake and the other mountains,we call the central Alps in Japan.
well,we arrived top of mountain, look at this there is snow!!
Many skiers were there but we were wearing sandals without any stockings and socks,my husband was wearing a white color shirt only, yes it was summer style.
our kids were wearing pajama and all shirts that we bringing for this trip.
・・・・sooooo cold
but that was OK.
but that was OK.It was about ten degrees at the top of mountain its a wonder why not melt snow.
We walked on the snow with sandals that was a rare experience and we had enjoy a fresh and cold air to the full.
We stayed there thirty minutes then went down a mountain then walked at the park,it flows from Komagatake to this river. Its beautiful park.
Do you know what is famous food in Nagano prefecture? It is ''Soba''(Japanese noodle made from buckwheat flour).
One of the condition to making Soba is cold and clear waters its melted snow. also good land for buckwheat too. these are here,so we had lunch at the Soba restaurant in the forest.
This restaurant is making soba by handmade that was very very delicious.
After lunch, we found mysterious one on the way to home.
There is narrow mountain road,but many cars and buses. we wondered what are they doing at the here, I think about fifty people was there and sitting. we couldn't any specialize things at there.but the other day, I searched what was that
then figure out
,that is famous spot for spiritual（氣:ki）, Bunkuitoge(a mountain pass).
