A thick fog suddenly lay all around.

one day bus tour--hiking (1)

Yesterday, I joined a one day bus tour of hiking.
My bus ran and ran -- to Kinasa in Nagano.
It was a long drive.
I had lunch while I was in bus.

It was rainy when I left Tokyo.
But it was fine in Nagano.

I visited Okususobana-shitsugen in Kinasa, Nagano.
It was a huge, calm, natural marshland.
It was the home of mizubasho (an aquatic cabbage).
I heard there were 810,000 mizubasho planted.

I enjoyed walking there for three hours.
Three hours was too short to see much of the marshland.
But I enjoyed myself very much.

Mizubasho was so pure.
Mizubasho was so lovely.
Mizubasho was so calm.

I walked 17171 steps.
