Re: Fully Enjoying The Wide Campus of Hokkaido University in Middle of Fall

It was an exceptionally beautiful day today in the largest city in the Northland, Sapporo. I walked and walked and walked around the wide campus (more than 20,000 steps) after the big event of Home Coming Day...,including the places of my old memories,.... sweet, bitter and sentimental days more than 40 years ago.
