I am in Kawaguchiko town.
I run the Mt. Fuji Marathon tomorrow.
In the morning, it was raining.
But past noon, it stoped.
When I arrived here, it was clear sky!
So, it was a great scenery!
Beautiful autumn leaves and Mt. Fuji!
29 years ago.
August 12, 1985. 6:56 P.M.
JAL 123 crashed in the mountain.
There was a ridge of Mt. Osutaka in Ueno village, Gunma.
520 victims, 4 survivors.
It IS the worst airplane accident in the world.
I live in Gunma.
I have remenbered after the airplane crashed.
Helicopters came and went continually between Mt. Osutaka and Shinmachi garrison.
And the press cars came and went in Fujioka.
And after that, but, transport accident have not been gone yet.
I went to watch a football game yesterday.
That was Thespakusatsu Gunma home game.
Thespakusatsu Gunma had a match with V-Varen Nagasaki.
Normally, Thespakusatsu home game is held at the Shoda Shoyu sutadium Gunma.
But it was held at the Kumagaya sports cultural park stadium.
Thespakusatu Gunma has matched with Nagasaki.
But Thespa has not won to Nagasaki.
It is badly matched... :(
It was windy day because it affected a passing tyhoon in western Japan.
But it was not strong compared with karakkaze wind, dry wind in Gunma in winter.
Thespakusatu gave up the first goal to Nagasaki at 38 minutes.
However, Thespakusatsu reversed by Miyazaki and Daniel Lovinho's goal at 74 and 78 minutes.
But!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know why...
After that, Nagasaki got three goals.
Thespa lost Nagasaki by 2 to 4...
Thespa couldn't win to Nagasaki this time, too........................................
They are Nagasaki supporters.
69th Hiroshima and Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Day.
They were the first and the last used atomic bombs to human.
Hiroshima city and Nagasaki city were destroyed.
A heat ray burned people and a city.
A radioactive polluted ground and water.
And many people were an A-bomb victim.
Do you think nuclears are neccesary for us?
I don't think so.
Because they are only destroying everything.
You know, it is not only Hiroshima and Nagasaki case,
but the Chernobyl and the Fukushima 1 are also destroying everything.
No more Hiroshima, No more Nagasaki, No more war!
I saw a movie today.
It was "GODZILLA" from Hollywood.
I thought it was exciting movie as Hollywood movie.
It was not entered the stage the GODZILLA, but it was entered also another Kaiju "MUTO."
Their battle was so exciting!
The GODZILLA's figure looked like japanese Gozira.
But I think they are different because the GODZLLA was not borned by nuclear experiments.
Japanese Gozira was that the theme was dread of nuclear.
However, that movie expressed that nuclear was the weapon of saving human race.
Hmm...when you see this movie, you don't think "Gozira movie."
If you come to the Tomioka Silk Mill, why don't you visit and pray at the Nukisaki shrine in Tomioka city.
The Nukisaki shrine is historical shrine.
The shrine established about 1,400 years ago.
And current main building of the shrine was built in Edo era.
That is very beautiful vermillion.
If you go to there, you get off a train at Joshu-Itinomiya station and walk 15 minutes.
Tomioka Silk Mill and Related Industrial Heritage was registered the World Heritage Site today!

I went to the Takayama-sha Sericulture School in Fujioka city, Gunma.
Fujioka is my home town.
But, I had not been to there.
There was advised to register the World Heritage Site with the Tomioka Silk Mill
by ICOMOS last month.
Then I went to there first time.
There is mountain side in Fujioka and very quiet.
Many people came from throughout Japan and learned about new sericulture
way at there about 130 years ago.
And they went back and started new style sericulture.
