One of Kamesei's many pocket gardens
亀清旅館の庭はモミジの落ち葉のお蔭で、所々が赤と黄色じゅうたんになっています。
外の温度がしっかり冬並みに低くなりまして、すでに初雪があって、周辺の山々は白くなり始まっています。今はちょうど「紅葉」と「雪景色」の間の幻の一旬です。今の内の落ち葉模様をたっぷり楽しまなっきゃ。
The 'momiji' Japanese maple trees in Kamesei Ryokan's have dropped their leaves, making an orange and yellow carpet on the ground.
The temperature outside has made a decidedly winter-like turn, and we've already had our first snow of the season. The surrounding mountains are starting to develop their snowy white caps for the winter.
Right now is that magical timing between the colorful splendor of the fall leaves, and the blissful peace of snow-filled winter scenery.
I intend to enjoy this magical season of the colorful carpet to its max.
