With Tara, in Tengendai!! (Part 2)
(Mar.10,2002)


It was a Tara's birthday yesterday....
but we were all too tired to go live concert with Tara...
We passed out right after dinner..around 8pm...

We stayed at GIGI's place where GIGI is panning to open a social school.
The place was still under construction, but it was so comfortable!!

Next morning, Tara came up to GIGI's palce and woke us up at 8AM!!
(We slept almost 12 hours!!)

It was raining in town...
and mountain was covered with thick clouds and strong wind....

We ride until the lift stop due to strong wind...
and we had a easy time by the fire palce... It was also nice..


The GIGI's Place..It will be a school by summer!!


Japanese Monkey was greeting us!!
(I hope National Geographic Magazine would buy this pic!!)


Tara and Makoto by the fire palce
and eating yummy Imagawayaki


Oh No!! Thick fog and strong wind....
We could do not much about the situation...


Makoto got a hole on his new shiny Arcterix pants!!
BUT don't worry!! it could be covered by insurance!!


We had a great time together...
After snowboarding, we went to Onsen, we had Yonezawa Ra-men, and some shopping.
We had to say good bye to Tara and left Yonezawa around 6PM.
We had some 6 hours driving back to Tokyo!!

And.... It happened on Tohoku highway...
Hasegawa's car suddenly made a strange sound...

Brake oil was realking from rear wheel...
and time we got to gas station, the oil got fire!!!


Smoke was coming out of rear wheel...
(Smoke and Koji)


It got fire again!!
we used fire extinguisher to put out the fire!!
I hope it will be covered by insurance!!
