I ended up sleeping late today (if 9 am is actually late), so I decided to punish myself by going to the beach. Doesn't sound like much of a punishment, but it being as hot as it is ... yeah, it really is harsh!
Taking my not-so-handy tourist map, I set out for the beach, which is over by Senami Onsen. The road I ended up taking was long and hot, and I thought it would never end. At one point I thought I might die, but I made it. Since I didn't have a bathing suit, there was no point for me to go to the actual beach, so I looked around at the souviner shops, and tried to locate the Onsen with free wi-fi, to which I never actually found.
I decided it was time to head home, as their isn't much to do at a beach when you can't play. I took a different way back - hoping it would be shorter. It wasn't, but it took me all along the coast, and it gave me the chance to not only ride under this cool pedestrian underpass, but see my first Kuhonbutsu statue!!!
There are several Kuhonbutsu statues all over the city, and my goal is to see them all. Despite living fairly close to many of them, I haven't actually seen any of them until today!
Go see the pictures!
