2021.8.29

I got up early to climb Gassan(月山), literally Mt. Moon, which is 1984 meters high.

It was fine in the morning, and I saw the beautiful sunrise.
However when we arrived at the 8th points, it was foggy, windy and very cold. We visited some shrines, and at the top we had a special praying ceremony.
Gassan is known as the mountain of the "Past." So I thanked my ancesters.

When we approached the top, it was fine. The  blue sky and green mountain were so beautiful. I saw the beautiful half moon too.

After coming down we got on the lift. 

On our way back to Tokyo, we took a hot spring bath to refresh.

We came back to Shinjuku around 8:40 pm.

It was a really nice trip.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
