Ebino to Aoshima

Started the day with a glass of warm mixed fruit juice before walking to the nearest shrine from the farmhouse. Enjoyed a home prepared breakfast before riding the Ebino Plateau, then on to Kirishima before lunch, which was snacks on the side of the road with some monkeys. Rode on to Cape Toi to see the wild horses before Easter Island heads(!) then had an amazing ride up the Nichinan coastline to Aoshima for a soothing onsen, local seafood dinner and Miyazaki craft beers. Will be sleeping to the sound of waves rolling on to the beach, and feel like I'm settling into the groove now, navigating Japan on a rental BMW and my speaking Nihongo (just as well as I meet with my tutor in Nobeoka tomorrow! 😉).Read more
