SILVER WEEK IN TOTTORI (0)




Silver week in Tottori


I am currently enjoying the Silver Week in Tottori Ken. My only connection to the Internet is my iPhone one so even if I can use the tethering (non officially supported) function with my Mac to surf the web, I won't upload dozens of photos through this channel, so this a light article...

That said I've some articles in preparation and as soon as I'll be back in Yokohama I'll upload them.

For now I can just show few shots that sum-up my week for now :

We are in the countryside.
