Where is Akita?

I had lived in Akita Prefecture (Prefecture is kind of like State)
in Northern Japan for about 5 years because of my father's job.
Almost readers of my blog might have one question ; where is Akita???
I post the map of Japan, so let's try to study about geography of Japan.

Akita is snowy place in winter, but summer season is cool.
When I had lived there, I didn't need the air conditioner.

One day, my friend gave me "INANIWA-UDON (UDON is one of noodles
in Japan)" that is one of representative foods in Akita.
INANIWA-UDON is really smooth texture and taste good, I love it!

As I already explained, Akita is snowy place, so I arranged on
the white dish in the image of snow.

Thanks to my friend, I could enjoy this UDON in SB.

I have not been to not only Akita but also other Northern area in Japan
after moving to another area, so I have a plan to visit there in this summer.
I might be able to report about the local foods, the accent, and people
in Northern Japan.
