Recommended for a visit

We took advantage of the Sunroute's outstanding location with a religious enlightenment at the exciting Togakushi Shrine. Overall I had a lovely time. I am happy thinking what I got what I paid for. It has broadband internet. Nice! Our hotel was only just refurbished with up-to-date furnishings

Side Trip to Nara

Sumo tournament

Monday (Getsuyobi) November 1 Waking numerous times in the night, I was grateful to keep going back to sleep until quarter to six when I got up and went to the second floor breakfast area, and pressed the button that asked me to choose my “desired” coffee, ground fresh from beans I could see...
