Classic Edo-era street behind the Obasute Masumune sake brewery
連休の週末で宿の方が忙しいけれど、天気が良くて・・・
せっかく自然で恵まれている信州に住んでいるから子供達を連れて、チャリ乗り!
今日は千曲川サイクリングトー度を稲荷山まで通って、そして桑原地区まで登りました。このルートは善光寺街道を通ります。私はの街道に残っている土壁の蔵の雰囲気が大好きです。尚且つ、自転車で通る場合はゆっくり見て楽しめる。
Andy君とKen君もよく頑張りました!
Even though our inn was busy with the 3-day weekend, it was such nice weather...
Since we're living here in Nagano blessed with such beautiful nature, I just had to take a break and get outside. So I took the kids for a nice bicycle ride. We started out riding along the Chikuma River Bicycle Path to Inariyama, and then followed the old Zenkoji Kaido -- the Edo-era road between Matsumoto and Zenkoji Temple in Nagano City. I just love the old earthen-walled "kura" storehouses and buildings that still remain from that period. And seeing them by bicycle allows you to enjoy them at a proper pace, rather than buzzing by them in a car.
I was really proud of Kenny and Andy -- they did really well on their bikes!
