Whew, well I finally did it! I went back to Mt. Hiwada and climbed it again. This time in just a little over an hour. It was not quite as peaceful at the top as I was hoping. Mainly because there was a large group of people pick-nicking at the top of the mountain. I didn't mind them being there but they were somewhat loud so it made the moment a little less peaceful than I was hoping for. Not only that, but it here was a layer of haze so that you couldn't get a very good view of the city. Oh well, that's alright. I'm hoping to do this maybe once a month for both physical training and also to help me spiritually as well. I did get a lot of enjoyment from greeting people on their way to the top of the mountain and also along the hiking path. It was great to see Japanese peoples faces change from very stern looks to smiles. I think that was the highlight of the whole trip for me.
The other part of my weekend was spent by 巾着田 (Kinchakuda Field) or in English, the field shaped like a coin purse, hehe. It's basically were the river snakes in such a way that the rice and flower fields in the middle resembles a coin bag from way-back when. It was pretty peaceful there by the river so sat and had some lunch and took some pictures too. Overall, a great weekend and I didn't fall off a mountain. Which was good...I think.
