So Japanese

Things to do while in Japan:

Visit a shrine.

 In this case: Izumo Shrine

                                                     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Izumo-taisha

                                  Visit a noodle restaurant.

According to your appetite you order 1, 2, 3, 4 or more bowls of yummy soba noodles. Make sure you make lots of noise when slurping them!

And at the end of the day: Visit a Hot Spring.

This one is at Arifuku, somewhere in Shimane ken.

First scrub and scrub the dirt of your body, then rinse and rinse more and finally go and sit in this really steaming hot water.

Wow. This is a HOT Hot Spring.

But it feels so good!

Already looking forward to tomorrow’s bath;-)

 

Salute.
