A beautiful ryokan awaited us, with spacious rooms, perfect service, excellent food and amazing views.

With a traditional Japanese bathroom where you wash and shower, then get into a wooden bath

Time for food and the obligatory Yakata

With superb food, fully explained (all 8 courses)



And thoroughly enjoyed by all

Before a late night stroll to see the shrine and street lanterns

As my young colleague informed me, it’s hot, hotter than the sun!
