More Golden Week

So how wild am I playing on this suspension bridge. This was behind our inn Magogajima, on the other side was a camp ground that looked like it might be a rather nice place to stay, but I'm glad that we stayed indoors.





On the way back into town we stoped at a small temple on the old Tokaido road. I didn't really get the connection but one of Shige's relatives has some connection to it. It is actually supposed to be famous, but now it seems to be just enough off the beaten track that only a very few visitors stop by. The lady working there knew the family relationship and she gave us a brief tour and then served us tea in the little tea house behind the temple. It was rather peaceful with the sound on the well water the was flowing into a stone bowl outside this sliding door.
