1/14

There was a big snow last night, and it continued until this afternoon.
I have to say, I have never ever seem this much snow piling up before.
This morning I had 1 meter of snow sitting on top of my car.

I had to go to Ishizaka Elementary today, which is somewhere close to the mountain.
After I picked up the materials at the office, I decided to head for the school 1 hour early.

On the way to Ishizaka, there was a big road with a couple train crossings on the left side of the road. I had to turn at one of the train crossings.
Since the snow all piled up and the signs were blocked, I had no idea which turn to take.
I got very lost and had to turn around many times.
My travel map of today :[

Once I turned into the train crossing road. Everything became white. EVERTHING!
On the way, I couldn't see a single house or car or person. Like a desert of snow. I couldn't even see the outline of the road. All I did was kept on driving straight...For a second, I thought I was driving in heaven.

And then I finally arrived at the school 15mins after the lesson started, which was exactly 1 hour after I left the office.

Took a picture this afternoon when it stopped snowing.
The pile of snow formed into a wall along the sidewalk. And the snow piled up so high that it formed a mountain.
