I drove on Route 156 towards the north, and reached Gokayama (五箇山). There are also many houses of Ga-Shou in Gokayama. Moreover, Gokayama is famous for the village of the Japanese paper which is called Gokayama Washi.

As the sky got dark in Gokayama, I drove on Tokai-Hokuriku Highway toward the south. Then I was caught in the snow at Hida (飛騨) and Takayama (高山) and rested from driving at Hirugano Highland SA. I ate 飛騨牛コロッケ定食 at the SA. I wondered whether or not to go to Mt. Fuji. As tomorrow’s weather report was cloudy in Shizuoka, I decided to go to Mt. Fuji.

This weekend was a three consecutive day holiday. Then, at this time, I tried to do my first long drive on Sunday and Monday. On Sunday, I wanted to get up at 5:00 AM, but I got up 6:00 AM, I am late to get up again… Thus I departed from my home at 7:00 AM. First, I drove towards Shirakawa-Go (白川郷) in North of Gifu. On Tokai-Hokuriku Highway I enjoyed rendezvous-driving with a silver BMW Z4 for a while. This is owing to something of a weak tie between convertible cars. And I arrived at 11:00 AM. Shirakawa-Go is a famous historic village and is also a world heritage site. Most of the houses there are constructed by the method of Ga-Shou (合掌造り). I enjoyed walking there, taking photos and eating lunch for about 3 hours.
