Monday 13 August
Back on the railway we headed towards the town of Obuse which at least in the guidebooks describe as unspoilt Japanese town. Well it has a lovely feel but is perhaps not quite as traditional as painted.
We did visit the botanical gardens which was a lovely garden and managed to stop off at a reasonably large supermarket for all those essentials ! We had a nice lunch and headed home.
Tuesday saw us back in Tokyo that mighty expensive mega-city.
