Kochi Trip

Yesterday I went on a package tour to Kōchi on the island of Shikoku. We made good time and as we crossed the Grand Seto Bridge the gloomy skies began to subside. Although I was unable get any reasonable shots from within the bus, the views were striking. The series of bridges span the Seto Inland Sea which is home to around three thousand islands.
Once we arrived, our group descended upon a local ryokan for lunch (held at eleven as we over an hour early). We then had our ‘free time’ to explore the castle. The ume (asian plum) had just begun to flower.
Back on the bus we travelled the short distance to Katsura Beach, a quintessential Japanese scene.
