I like going out for a walk in the hills. I had a very happy and pleasant day today. I climbed Mt. Takao with a few friends of mine. I enjoyed cool and fresh air, green leaves, and of course, talking. I had a wonderful time.

There are several routes to Mt. Takao. We took a direct but sharp rise in the road called Hikage-sawa route today. I like this route very much, because it is very cool.

We took lunch at 'momiji-dai,' maple trees plateaus. There was a 'cha-mise,' a food stand there. We enjoyed 'nameko-jiru,' mushroom soup. It's so good to have lunch at the top of the mountain.

Around one o'clock, we began to go down a steep hill along a mountain stream. We took a route called 'biwa-taki' I got a little bit nervous, because the road was narrow, rocky and slippery. What a relief, when I finally got to the station.

It made me so happy that I was all right with my broken leg.

What a lovely flower!
