When I went to leave the ryokan, the owner lady gave me 3 bananas and a sports drink. I’m not sure there’s been any other time in my life where I’ve had so much fruit in such a short time! (I don’t normally eat a lot of fruit)
I only walked about 15KM today, but that was because my plan was to do a bit of sightseeing in Uwajima City with the free time. However, it rained so I secluded myself to the inn.
The Iwamatsu river running in front of yesterday’s ryokan.
The mountain path today was fairly short at 5KM and only about 200M high.
From here I met YH-san again, so we walked together.
Uwajima City, Henro Inn Moyai
As the name would suggest, the inn is aimed at walkers of the henro trail. Guests stay in a room in a normal apartment.
The man running the inn was a truly kind person and made me feel very welcome.
According to him the number of foreign walkers staying has been increasing, so since I had time I wrote an English translation of what services, facilities and rules there were. He was very grateful.
