Fall at Kawaguchiko - Yamanashi

2014/11/19


Beautiful Mount Fuji, which never fails to amaze me. We made it all the way to yamanashi to enjoy the autumn leaves. We stopped by Kawaguchiko, one of the five lakes around Mt.Fuji, which was created when Mt.Fuji erupted.



Kawaguchiko, is not an autumn leaves spot but we found some maple trees which were just in their mid fall.

Early in the morning when we passed the Murodo staion on our way to Kurobe dam it was clear all around. in the aftern...
