Hiking in comfortable Autumn air on Sep 3rd

The weather forecast was wrong in our favor.

No rain, no heat, we had only comfortable autumn air. 

On the day, we had 13 nice guys, most from African countries, and one from Asia, all with clear eyes full of ambitious look, ready to start advanced research work here in our country.

As usual, they were ardent listeners, and raised many questions making all of us feel great.

B.t.w., I took up my favorite topic, plants growing in Mt. Takao.
