Yudanaka (73) - Japonly

Yudakana and the snow monkeys. Here we are in this tiny mountain village in the region of yamagouchi. Hot springs village a few kilometers from the ski slopes and 20 minutes to Jigokudani, the park where several families of monkeys in freedom share the onsen. It is under the sun that we started the beautiful promenade along the creek that leads. And it was under a beautiful blue sky that we have discovered them, we can approach without fear but avoid touching them and watch them in the eye, which could be taken as an affront. We respect these rules and that is happiness. The rain comes and turns into deluge, the deluge that we can only find in the mountain. And it is therefore naturally that we find ourselves in this tiny refuge with of a couple of American journalists who reside on site for nearly a year to make a report on the lives of these monkeys, we left head packed with anecdotes and look forward to its release.
