salty noodle in Imabari

I ate noodle which had salt taste.

It was second shop. The first shop was very tasty.

But, the second shop's one was very bad.



Matsuyama town

The castle was on the summit of small mountain. The mountain was at the center of Matsuyama city.

So, I could see all of town. I remembered that I'd stayed the town in 6 years.





Castle Matsuyama

I walked to Matsuyama castle alone in the next morning. I like to walk early in the morning.

The castle was symbol of Matsuyama city. When I was university student, I often watch it in the city. I remember the days. Now, my son is the age. I hope he will enjoy and study enough.



Rice noodle

During we back to Matsuyama-town where we would sleep, we ate lunch.

The noodle was made by rice. It was simple taste.

The pork donburi was tasty.



with historical hero

In deep mountain, there was a Sakamoto Ryoma's memorial place.

Sakamoto Ryoma was a famous historical hero. His work changed Old feudalistic style to new Democratic style of Japan. As a resuld, his work saved Japan from European's invade.





In the mist

I went to Ehime-pref. with my friend. Ehime-pref. was a place where we stayed when we were university students.
The misty landscape was karst landscape in mid of Shikoku island.
If it was fine, we would be able to see green beautiful landscape.

End of the road

The end of bicycle's road was in city Sojya. The distance was about 20 km.

I thought that I would go there again someday.


five-story pagoda

Pagoda, sky, green and flowers.

It was nice landscape.




Flowers

What a nice bicycle road it was !

There were many flowers beside the road.




Ancient tombs

The bicycle road was beside the area of many ancient tombs and temples. I could watch many ruins.


Road only for bicycle

In Okayama, there was road for bicycle. The length was about 20 km.

I brought my bicycle to Okayama and I went there.

It was very very nice. There was no need to consider about cars and walkers. It was very nice.
