Last week, We(Yoko & me) went to Yamagata by Tohoku-Shinkansen. Autumn season has already come.
At Mt. Gassann (means Mt. Moon in Japanese) it was covered with autumn leaves.
We got on a chair lift to middle high place of Gassan.
It’s very cold and rainy there. It seemed to be 6 or 7 degree temperature. Just arrive there, we came down soon.
