Daylight, and it’s all gone. As I predicted, it didn’t last very long. It would have been nice to experience going to work in the snow. Perhaps people from places where they often have to snow
A side-by-side photo comparison shows the snow last night, and the remnants this morning.
Shibuya (and no doubt the rest of Tokyo) has been covered with a layer of snow tonight. As I was writing my previous post, it was really bucketing down outside and coating everything with a layer of white. In as little as 20 minutes, the road outside was covered with an untouched, even white surface – apart from the wheel marks of the first car to drive through the middle of it.
It’s snowing in Tokyo!! Tonight, about 3cm (so far, at 11:30pm) has fallen, and things have turned white. I took some photos on my way home from my language class (around 10pm), but it’s become a lot more white since then. I might go outside and take some more. Let’s see if it’s still white outside in the morning.
Ever wanted a falcon’s view of Mt Fuji and the surrounding ranges? Takanosu-yama (鷹ノ巣山) – translated as Falcon’s Nest Mountain – offers just a commanding view, good enough for a falcon. On an unseasonably cold, but clear and crisp autumn day, the contrast between snow, bright coloured foliage, clear blue skies and the vista beyond was a perfect way to spend a public holiday.
