Grandfather and I successfully climbed Amidadake over the New Year. We weren't able to go to Myoujo-san due to the weather in Niigata, but it is on our list for this summer. We weren't keen on attempting to scale the mountain in the rain. However, the weather in Nagano was perfect for a climb and there was no precipitation at all. Afterwards, we enjoyed the Inagoyu Onsen.

On the first, we visited the Matsubarasuwa Shrine to bring in the new year before going back to Tokyo.

I hope everyone aboard the Karura has a successful and safe year.
