We are waiting for a woman from JAR to pick us up. Ruben, Patrick and I will stay at another place the next two nights since just the three of us will be here. I wouldn't have minded staying in the camp but a proper roof while sleeping doesn't sound bad either.
We all have to do some laundry. The humid and wet weather makes even the unworn clothes smell like a cellar. If the rain stops we will try to take a bus to the Tono valley close by. They have a matsuri there today and my mum sent me some information about this area when we were here the first time with the strong recommendation to visit it if we have a chance. Which we haven’t had but maybe this time...
We had Cecilia's cooking left overs from last night for breakfast. I will miss her cooking maybe as much as I will miss her...

We had a good relaxing day. The ryokan JAR is in is small, a little bit old but very lovely. They rent two rooms there. One for working and as sleeping place for the women and one as sleeping place for the men. The best thing is, the ryokan has an onsen. No 15 minutes walk... It's directly there. It's small but again really beautiful.
After doing our laundry, we took a bus to Hanamaki station (it's about 30 minutes), had some lunch and walked around for a bit. There is really very little to see (besides the beautiful nature outside of the town), so we ended up at a hill where you have a good look over the city and where a former castle was. Unfortunately there is just a piece of the castle wall left, the rest is gone. In the small park next to it, we made the surprising discovery that Ruben is very loved by caterpillars... But I guess they were basically the exciting things of the day... We went early back and will go soon to bed. A good and nicely boring day...
And my clothes smell fantastic ^^
