7th Jan. Togakushi Village

「Togakushi Village」

１月７日　戸隠だぞ

 

↑I have never come to Togakushi without visiting this shrine called Suzakura. The cherry blossom is very old; someone says it’s more than 2,000 years old.

　戸隠に来る時は必ず素桜神社を訪れます。この桜はとても古く、樹齢2,000年とも言われています。

 

↑The morning sun and my car “Super Every”

　朝日と愛車のスーパーエブリィです。

 

↑This is Daizaboushi lake. In winter it freezes and covered with snow.

　大座法師池です。冬は凍り、雪に覆われます。

 

↑Togakushi is famous for soba, buckwheat noodles, and I used to work for the restaurant “Ohkubo no chaya”. I called on the owners after a long time away and thank to owners’ power, I got a complimentary ticket (for free). Malo ‘aupito ‘aupito. In addition, the ski lesson I take continues for 3 days, so I can stay in this soba restaurant as my accommodation. I really appreciate.

　 戸隠は蕎麦で有名で、蕎麦屋「大久保の茶屋」でバイトしていました。久し振りに社長を訪ねました。社長の力でリフト券をいただけました。ありがとうございます。さらにスキー講習は3日間続き、その間蕎麦屋に泊めてもらえます。本当にありがたい。

↑Togakushi is one of a sacred mountain in Japan and the mountain is very steep. The ski field is located on 2,000m high so it’s very cold. That’s the same as Mt. Asama.

　戸隠山は日本で有名な霊山の1つで、とても険しいです。スキー場は浅間と同じく2,000ｍの標高にあります。天の岩戸伝説の場所です。
