It was quite a tour.and I've done it.

Already one week has passed since I have joined in the shimanami kaido bike campaign on 14th of the April. Still my memory of that is very very clear and vivid as if it would never vanish away from my mind. Because it was quite a fun and I really enjoyed myself very very much.

We gathered at the JR Onomichi St 8:30 in the morning.
We had to leave Kobe around 5'o clock. About two and half driving of the Sanyo expressway never gave me a troublesome or tiredness. Actually I did not get tired at all. Probably because I was so excited of having a unusual and first adventure of 77km biking tour. And my son Tosihiro decided to join us the day before our start ,this fact gave me lots of happiness and relieved my self very much.
Anyway it took almost 10 hours to reach Imabari from Onomichi.It was very slow biking. But,we had to bike many steep slopes to cross six bridges. it seems very tough tour to hear. Of coruse,it was not so easy. but still I never felt a tiredness during on the bike. Anywhere along the suimanami-kaido,the view of around there was extremely fantastic. It is worth to see. The beauty of scenic islands and shimmering sea overwhelmed my weariness.

and after 10 hours biking We stayed Matuyama YH. Very cozy and neat accommodation,needless to say it was very cheap(just 2,100yen for one night). And and and…From there,We could enjoy ourselves Dougo onsen(坊っちゃん温泉）. Ｉｔ　was so so soooo 気持ちよかったなあ。

Well,I can say it again.　It was quite a tour. I 've done it.
