Report of the Monthly Tour on May 21

 

At long last I started TENGU activities again after the pandemic of Covid-19 seemingly somewhat calmed down finally.

This was applicable also to the guest of the day, a nice outgoing young lady from Hong Kong who had made frequent visits to our country before then.

Yes, we had one guest, while we were 4 old men.

Composition of participants seems odd, but this isn’t unusual. And our guest warm-heartedly understood our position, as usual, to take this tour also for our internal training, though we’d hoped to include female guides.

The weather was rather cloudy, yet comfortable enough to enjoy new green leaves on Trail No.1 for ascent and No.4 for descent.

Lastly, we were very grateful for her decision to spend a full day for this tour during her short stay of 4 days in our country this time.

We all had a wonderful time with her, and we hope she did too.

Here are some photos including ones taken by her.
