Journeys

Arrive at the station, check into a hotel, chopsticks that were previously a roof, sushi at Nishiki Market.

Tonia finds a used bookshop in an arcade. Asks for a Hokusai art book. They have one, but an unexpected kind.

Jo visits Higashi Bank for a team meeting. Reception keigo, peer banter, diplomatic disagreement. Naoshima weekend.

That ryokan looks like a house. Onsen rules, Fushimi Inari, a wrong turn, fox spirits, coffee and hardboiled eggs.

Aki and Yume go to Miyajima on a rainy day.
