Nagahama/Shirahama

Managed to get up at 6 and get in a 1hr 7min jog around Nagahama before setting off to hot springs resort a 300km drive on the Peninsula south of Osaka called Shirahama which means White bay-after the white sandy beaches.As Typhoons took a lot of the white sand hundreds of thousands of tons were bought from Australia so when we were on the beach today we were probably still on Australian soil-so to speak.
We had yet another eat as much as you like buffet which was of superb quality and I did OK with lots of sashimi,sushi and miso soup and fruit.Did have a rather large ice cream to end but it was still a pretty healthy feed,(apart from the beer).We`re having long soaks in the hot springs and tomorrow going to a safari park so I`ll try to get up early and get in a run before the eat as much as you like breakfast......
