On Sunday R, Mom and I attempted to see
Korankei, which should have been the site of many beautiful fall colored trees. Instead it was the site of an 8 hour traffic jam. The 33km drive which should have taken under an hour instead took 6 hours, most of which was spent behind a tour bus.
We ended up not even getting out of the car except to use the
porta-johns that were stationed along the route toward the display. The traffic was so bad that no one even needed to stop
their car to use the bathrooms, just keep someone in the driver's seat while the others go and then
meander slowly back the car still putting along.
The first time we drove by the main attraction it was still light out, but by the time we were able to turn around to head back it was dark enough that we were also able to see the trees in their lit up display as well. It was an experience, but I wouldnt reccomend it to anyone.
