Koyasan to Nagoya

We’re up to the 6th of April. Morning in the monastery and Koyasan then down to Nagoya (our base for getting out to the Toyota factory).

Exploring Koyasan and we find the sublime:

Exploring Koyasan some more and we find the ridiculous – a liquour vending machine, in what is a twelve centries old Buddhist township…
