Autumn in The Mountains

It's now freezing cold here and indeed it snowed quite heavily the other day.

Before the end of November though we were able to get up to the mountains near Chichibu and enjoy the Autumn colours.

These photos were taken at and on the way to our favourite old nunnery that is hidden away deep in the mountains.

The Ōchigawa, is a tributary of the Arakawa, it is full of autumn colours and delicious fish at  this time of year.
