About 4 hours on the train this morning.
When I found my hotel at about 12:45, they let me check in. How sweet was that?
The hotel onsen is very nice. The water seems to be rather alkaline. Truth in advertising seems to be important. The hotel says that their water is only 26 degrees and they heat it to 42.
Walked around town. It is on the ocean. In winter, visitors come to look at sea ice. Not icebergs. But ocean covered in a layer of ice. Don’t think there’s any reason to come in the summer. But here I am.
I came to see a prison. Tomorrow. If I can figure out how to get to jail.
Yesterday I made a snarky comment about Japanese sandwiches.
That’s Salted Vanilla Whipped Cream and Chocolate Mint Whipped Cream and Chocolate.
Those are seriously weird sandwiches. I didn’t buy a sandwich today
