End of year party♪

In Japan, December is the peak season for "end-of-year" parties!
I had 3 parties in a row this week, and well, I feel like a Japanese drama actress!!
But it was reaaaaal!!!!! Grooooaaaaaa!!!

This Thursday it was the party of the company and it took place at "Peninsula" hotel!
Oh my god it was sooo gorgeous!

Hakone

I went this week-end to Hakone with some colleagues to see the red leaves.
Hakone is a city known for their hot springs and also the famous spot to admire the Mont Fuji.

My colleague's friend's villa : 

With beautiful red leaves:

Me, cooking

At Owakudani (a volcanic valley with active sulfur vents and hot springs. from wiki):

We took the ropeway to reach the Ashi lake (Ashinoko):

The lake : 

Whoever says "Hakone" means "EVANGELION" :D

 The red gate on the lake : 

At night we went back to the house to have dinner.
They have a "sunken fireplace"!! 

The next day we went for hiking....and we walked....a lo....t
(I can't feel my legs even now)
But it definitely worth it!

Another lake (don't remember the name)

My best pic of the week-end:

Autumn and Spring are the best seasons in Japan!!
