Some snapshots "back in time"

My working environment near Matsumoto, Nagano Prefecture

Onsen or natural Japanese hot spring ... just great watching beautiful coloured leaves slowly finding their way to the ground. One of the great stops during my hitchhiking trips. Go to onsen with your drivers!

I ended up being an amazed spectator of the 33rd Japanese National Lifesaving Championships in Fujisawa.

One of our truck drivers making a next sign in Kanji (Chinese characters). And Brent, one of my travel companions.

A Japanese church ..., no a shrine in Biwa-ko, the biggest lake in Japan near Kyoto.
