Walk on the old road scince 1500 yeas ago.

15:00 fuel 208L

It was windy. The wave on the ocean out of the bay is reaching 1.8m.
We had to stay here today.

We left the Lukia moored to the pontoon of the Owase Sea Side View Hotel, we walked on the oldest road near by here. The road called "Kumanokodo" was established 1500 years ago.

Japanese cypress(a kind of wood ) which extends only in Japan and Taiwan grew around here.
Ancient people used to walk on this road to pass from Ise-shrine to Nachi-Taisha.


On Kumanokodo, at the top of the mountain, there is a tiny rest house. As Mami found a broomstick there, she began to clean the rest house. It is a typical Japanese custom for whomever notices it to clean the holy places.


Afeter getting out of "Kumanokodo", we took a train to go to the town for lunch.
How to pay a train fare is unique around here.
You just tell the conductor where you got on, then he/she will tell you the train fare. The conductors trust their passengers basically.

A famous restaurant called "Mamy's smorgasbord" was introduced, so we went there.


After we returned to the hotel, we refuel to the Lukia.
We might be able to cruise next morning.
