Day 9: Kamikochi
Spent a large part of the day walking alongside the river, and through the forests of Kamikochi.
The Kappa-bashi bridge is an iconic symbol of Kamikochi. Originally a drawbridge it was rebuilt in 1910 as a suspension bridge. The present bridge, which was completed in 1997, is the fifth generation of this famous symbol.
Some of the beautiful autumn colours. Screensaver stuff!
James and Julie came across a group of monkeys and Les came across a group of girls who wanted a photo with this very tall man
Dinner was really special. An authentic Japanese dinner called Azusa kaiseki with 8 courses. Particularly special were the square cedar wood cups from which to drink sake, and the origami decorating some of the courses representing autumn
