It was a public holiday in Japan and so I managed to score
a rare 3 day weekend off.
Sat/Sun/Mon.
We decided to visit Chikako`s rels in Gunma-ken.
My first ever visit there.
Then to stay that night in Utsunomiya
and onto Nasu on Sunday morning.
Chikako-san at the wheel enroute to Gunma.
What a beautiful Autumnal day....
That person obviously has good taste !
DemiChan in Gunma !
Me, too - my first trip.
We enjoyed looking through Chikako`s aunt `n uncle`s garden.
It is so wonderful.
Hime ringo - unique taste.
Luncheon .... Japanese food served in a tatami room.
Perfect.
Shisa !
After Gunma we motored to Utsunomiya to stay the night
at the Richmond Hotel.
Again, my first time in Utsunomiya: seems like a nice place.
We decided to have dinner in the izakaya in the lobby.
DemiChan waiting patiently in the parking lot for us.
We drove from Utsunomiya to Nasu.
Again, it was a beautiful Autumnal day.
Below: shot from a shop in Nasu - very busy there.
These two photos were taken by Chikako san from Demichan
as I drove across this suspension-style bridge.
You can see the mountains around / near Nasu.
The wind was just so strong as it swept down from the mountains,
across the flat land and over the bridge.
Amazing bridge, amazing view and amazing wind.
