After link a 2.5-hour drive at the end of day 1 we arrived at a hotel in Kobuchisawacho and rested for our longest day. We got the link first glimpse of nature which inspires so much of Grand Seiko's craft as we left our hotel. Dazed a bit jetlagged and under-caffeinated I missed the photos of the red pine forests but we did get a glimpse of Lake Suwa which has as many other landscape features been turned into link a Grand Seiko dial.
