Fujino

Two weekends ago, as a follow-up to our trip, Tomoe and I took our bikes to Fujino, where I almost moved to a year ago. I came back disappointed, thinking I didn't see much to take a picture of, but looking through my photos today, two weeks later, I am a little happier.

As for Fujino, I'm a little glad I didn't move there. It's nice, nicer than Tokyo for sure, but after Nagano, Fujino seemed somewhat empty. Not of people, but of life. Nagano had a low population density, same as Fujino, but the difference is that in Nagano, the people lived there. In Fujino, people sleep there, and they live in their offices in Tokyo. Both Tomoe and I sensed the difference, having the benefit of comparing it with a fresh impression of Nagano.
