Akita Trip Day 2 Part 2

We drove to Lake Tazawa to visit 2 more shrines located at the lake. We brought food at the shrine to feed the fishes and while feeding, a crow flew and stopped at the rock which was the surface of the water. The moment we were wondering it was waiting for a lunch, it scooped the fish and flew back to the surface. It sure had an easy time since it was waiting for us to draw the fishes with the food!

During our late snack at the local store near the lake. There was an old man sitting next table beside us, even though he was speaking in Japanese (Dialect?), none of us could understand at all... I just keep nodding and smiling when he was speaking to us. But when I asked S what did he said, S said he had also no idea, terms that elderly used was only used in the past and had been obliterated. Moreover his dialet was strong.
