Day Fifteen

November 26, 2006

 

Today we checked out of the ryoken. It was the most relaxing place I've visited. I was very sad to leave and fly back to the rat race of Tokyo. I don't have very many photos from today since it was a travel day.

A photo of the inside onsen first thing in the morning. I tried to get a photo of the outside, however it was too steamy.

I didn't take a photo at every place we visited, but I figured I needed to take a photo of this or you wouldn't believe me! The Japanese wave good-bye to you until you are out of sight, which can mean one whole minute of waving for both parties. It's one of the most unique aspects of this culture. We enjoyed waving for minutes and still waving just to make sure that they couldn't see us.
