ある日本の秋(Colorful Season of Japan)

2014年11月15日 | Drive from Hiroshima

I & wife visited to our son and daughter by my own car (Diamante Wgn).
I planed this trip at an opportunity of M-company OB-meeting which was held
at Okazaki in Aichi prefecture.

Son lives in nearby Nagoya city and daughter lives in surburbs of Tokyo, then
we made up our mind to visit Nagoya and Tokyo by Diamante Wgn.

Why could it be a car? Because, daughter asked us to send winter goods (swea-
ters, coats and brancket etc) and some of foods. Then, we used a car.
Last time, in this April, we made round trip from my hometown to Tokyo direct-
ly. However, we stop over at Nagoya, my son's accomodation at this time when
going and returnning.

At this opportunity, we visited a few historical places. One is the place of the
Father of Shogun Tokugawa family (the last Samurai era), it's called "Matsudai
ra-go Villedge. There is a small villedge being surrounded the mountains in the
east of 10km away from the central part of Toyota city. 

The other is one of the old-fighting-remains (Kosenjo in Japanese) at where
Hideyoshi Toyotomi had fought with Ieyasu Tokugawa at the end of 16 century.
It is called "Nagakute no Kassen". Ieyasu Tokugawa won this fight.

I herein introduce the pictures of colored trees of these places as a repre-
sentative scene of autumn in Japan.  I could still see natures of being covered
with 
many dark greens though some of trees have turned the color into yellow,
orange 
and red when I visited. 

However, it is also fantastic that the yellow and orange and red stand out
against the background
 of the dark greens! 
Generally, in this time, alomost of deciduous trees fall the leaves down or turn
the color.
