It is my first cycling trip! A friend told me Japan is a right size to have a trip by bike, exactly! We cycled one of the main lslands of Japan called Shikoku for 8days. Our plan was cycling along a cost clockwise. We did not have time to cycle the whole island so that we decided to did half of it, plus cut off a bit by train. I was looking forward to see sea and other several little islands between the main island!

Takamatsu to Naruto

from ferry

After waking up we did sightseeing at Naruto. It is famous for its vortexes which occur in the Nruto Strait. We took a ferry trip. On the day we could not see huge vortexes but could see fairly size ones. When I see this kind of natural phenomenon, I always wish I had a brain of physics or something, to understand the cause or just to have another persopective about them. I have never lived close to sea so that this whole trip was really exciting and I really loved to take the ferry trip to go far away from land. While taking ferry, I wonder how the life of sailor would be. The sea view made me think of how small world I live in. I always learn something new every day in my life but there are much more interesting things in a world.

I am a person who is easy to be curious and interested in whatever come into eyes or ears, so I sometimes think that I cannot get them all figured out, which is true if it were only by myself.

After Naruto, we just cycled toward next city. We took a main big road which was so easy. We cycled until we found Onsen or common bath place. We found it right the time before sunset. Around the Onsen there was a public park and we tented there. The buddy told me that Japan is very bad to tent. He always struggled to find the right place for tent. He told me there is no grassy area in Japan, which means I have never seen the real  grassy area. Then when I recall, the grassy area I think of are propably artificial. Sad!
