Today B and I took a drive in the mountains of Shikoku, and snagged some pictures. I didn't take many because there weren't many places to pull off on the side of the road... you'll see why in one of the pictures!
The pictures also don't do the colors justice. Especially since I didn't manage to get a picture of what I think were Japanese maple trees. The leaves were the deepest red color--absolutely stunning.
I drove on this road. For about an hour and a half. You can see my car in the picture, for scale purposes. It wasn't a one-way road, by the way. :D
