Looking back last Autumn !

by Kazu

Are you satisfied with the beauty of  autumnal foliage ? Red, yellow, purple, green and orange foliage decorated the street on the premises of Hokkaido University as usual last year.  

 Ginkgo biloba seemed to be emitting light of gold even in the cloudy sky. The fruits of the trees smell so bad terribly but the core part of the seeds are called "ginnan" in Japanese and is very popular in Yakitori bars, a kind of bistro of skewered grilled chicken..

The countenances of each trees varies even in a day or hour. The sunshine and shade, even the wind contribute to the beauty of the scenery in the university. Can you remember the scenery ?
