After breakfast we jumped in the truck for a quick tour through the local mountains.
Caught a local bus to a little mountain market and tavern for lunch near the recycling centre.
A shop that used recycled materials had a lot of interesting ideas but we didn't see any customers the whole time we were poking around.
Another farm dinner with locally grown vegetables and river fish. Better than the onsen.

We decided to go to Shiratani unsuikyo because it might rain tomorrow and we might not be able to visit there if it rains a lot. On the bus on the way up, the bus driver spotted some monkeys and stopped for us to take some photos. How nice! We ordered this onigiri (rice-ball) lunch in a bamboo leaf. Noriko could not wait until lunchtime and had one in ohara town where we chenged the bus. Dinner on the way home featured the local fisherman's flying fish. It was delicious! It was 1300yen including the dessert.
Thursday 20/12/18 to Kamikatsu
We caught the first ferry back to start an epic trip to Kamikatsuchou. Our ducks came out for lunch. We got a lift from our next hosts to save us from some bus hopping to get to this tiny mountain village. It is famous for its recycling efforts, and people come from all over Japan to learn how to improve their local recycling programs. A lot of effort at the recycling centre goes into sorting things into hundreds of categories. Onsen food for a very early dinner. The homestay at a local farm was fantastic.
