We drive up to Nara Gojo city for two hours. We get beer, sake, and wine at a liquor shop.
Normally, you can get alcohols at motels. Buying alcohols outside is less expensive.

We are totally starving so; we stopped at restaurant to eat. We have ramen noodles, which is different taste from Kyoto. It is much vegetable, and tastes good. We paid \650 per person for ramen and oden.

We reach Yase hanged bridge. Smile and peace. |
|
|
|
 |
|
This hung bridge is the highest and longest in Japan. I got so excited to walk on. The structure of the bridge is doubtful simple. Donﾕt excite on the way. This bridge is very shaky.

The end of the bridge, there is souvenior shop !! It has products of mountains like leaf mustard, bamboo shoot, bracken and turmeric which is good for your liver. I buy a bottle of turmeric even though it is suicidal tastes bad.

We are getting closer to the village. On the way we found the nice ride called "wild monkey" Of course, We don't take a look at the caution says maximum passenger 2 people.
The weather gradually looks bad.

We finally arrive at the motel "Fukase". 7 hours passed since we left Kyoto!!
Look at my socks. This is called "Gunsoku" it is like gloves for feet. It has a finger though socks. Very comfortable.

In the rain, we go to hot spring beside the motel. I don't know why the water is too hot, so we pass the much water to the hot spring for about fifteen minutes with naked. In that moment I forget I am lady.

After taking a hot spring and 15mins nice exercise, we are hungry and thirsty. Cold beer and nice dinner are waiting for us. All the dishes are made by the products of the village. We are very satisfied with the food and the hospitality.

After the dinner, we drive to the hot spring in Yoshino river. It is a small pond with hot water. There is no fence around. It is clear to get watched from someone. You can find hot springs when you dig the holes in any riverside of Yoshino river.
A friend of mine is hesitated to be naked, so she wears swimsuits. But, I want to be in great nature completely, so I dive into the hot spring with naked. I spend very precious moment in the great nature.
