Kiso -Fukushima to Kaida Plateau 14kms 673m

A beautiful day of forest walking.
Noelene joins us at the female waterfall.
Our bus drove us deep into the forest and left us at twin waterfalls at the bottom of a mountain. A steep climb, but it was cool and immensely peaceful.

Everywhere we stopped there were beautiful lakes. Old preserved wooden buildings in Rauma, charming river walks in Turku and beaches at Hanko with no-one on them. Finland felt relaxed and unhurried.

Kyoto and Nakasendo Way

Image
 We caught the bullet train from Tokyo to Kyoto. The train way amazingly quick and quiet. The exact opposite of Tokyo Train station. Luckily we had an hour to find the right entrance platform and seat. We needed it!! Kyoto is a large grey city which seems to go on for ever in both directions along the coast. Inland it quickly changes to rolling wooded hills with no buildings at all. The food is very very different. Seafood, meat and fried food abounds in the cafes, many of which are one table wide heading deep into the building. In the more traditional eating places fungi, meat, tofu, rice, tempura, miso and pickled vegetables.
