Onsen, Sumo, Golf and too much Tokyo

[Noel Mugavin]

Always enjoy getting out and about early and beating the crowds













There are escalators to take you up the hill. This early they weren't operating however.



Overlooking Sagami Bay where the sailing events in the 64 and 21 Olympics took place

Sunrise over Sagami Bay

Back towards the hotel





Only issue with being up and about before the crowds, not everything's open. No Sea Candle for me today.




Went back down and more of a wander




Walked up to the Enoshima Enoden Station, grabbed myself an all day ticket then on the train and off at Hase Station.
10 minute walk or so and up to the Great Buddha

Back towards the station and to Hase-dera Temple










Coffee stop at the station, then on the train to Kamakura


Up to Komachidori and Giraffa Curry Pan

 

[Noel Mugavin]

Bit of a walk to walk off the calories. Grabbed another curry pan from a different store, simply for comparisons sake. Very good, Giraffa a touch better though.


Back to Kamakura Station, on to the JR line for the short ride to Ofuna Station




Grabbed some heat patches for my back from a pharmac_ across the road from the station. Then back in and on to the Shonan Monorail.




Gets some pace up, and ends at Enoshima, across from the Enoden Station. Nice views from the monorail station.


This guy makes many appearances


On to the Enoden and back to the hotel for a bit of a rest. Driving range on the same property as the hotel, unfortunately the pain in my back didn't allow me to have a swing.

Walk down to the station and interesting architecture. San Francisco weatherboard?


Couple of train transfers and found myself in Yokohama
