Minami Boso Trip Continues / 南房総の旅がつづく

Leaving Nihon-ji, heading back to Tokyo, but first, a short stop to check out a public foot bath!

日本寺を去って、東京に戻る。でもその前にあし湯を楽しむ。





The foot bath! / あし湯だ!








After warming our feet, it was back on the road.  Next stop, checking out the "Golden Well".

そして次の目的地へ、天然記念物の「黄金の井戸」。









Um, the well doesn't look that golden to me.  But then I discovered that it only becomes golden during the months of March through May.

う~ん、黄金ではないね。あとから知りましたが、黄金の色になる期間は3月から5月らしです。



This is what it looks like that during that time (picture borrowed off the internet, obviously from a television show).

その期間はこういう風になってるらしい。(写真はネットから、どうみても、“アド街天国”だな。



And off to another adventure...

冒険が続く。。。
