Ok, this one covers the 5th of April, day 10 in Japan.
It’s quite a trip from Hamamatsu up to Koyasan. I think we started the day by hunting bento boxes (to have for lunch on the train) at around 10am:
Then found a beer and coffee (ahhh, what a combination) at Osaka station:
and got of the final cable car up at Koyasan at about 3:30, checked into our room at the monkestry:
(Janette’s feet are tucked under the magic heated table)
and did a quick explore of Koyasan where the locals stared at us:
Pretty outside of a Shrine:
And just one segment of a scary scary chunk of artwork from inside the shrine:
A different shrine that we found at the end of a row of Torii gates:
Koyasan (left side of the map) is just under 900 m above sea level and tucked away in the forest:

and to finish, the beer supplied with dinner at the monkestry:
It may have led to this silliness, although it could have just as easily been tofu overload:
