Aug. 24
It was the second day of my summer holidays.
I climbed Mt. Tateyama via Lake Kurobe.

I took a trolleybus going through Kurobe Tunnel and arrived at Lake Kurobe.


I was surprised at seeing a huge dam.

It was a really superb view.



Then I took a cable car and, aerial tramway and another trolleybus.

Finally, I arrived at Murodo on Mt. Tateyama.
Here was at 2450 meter elevation.
It was cold!

There were still a lot of snow gorges.
It was so nice walking around the plateau area.

The beer under the sky was great!

I stayed Tateyama Hotel at Murodo.
It is the fine hotel which is located the highest elevation in Japan.

I had very fine Japanese cuisines and tasted local Japanese wine.
They were so nice, very delicious.


After the dinner, I enjoyed beautiful starry sky and had a dry martini at the bar of the hotel.

Because of the low atmospheric pressure, I felt the alcohol earlier than usual.
Good night….
