Onsen

Yesterday was the spa day. We went to the famous onsen in Matsuyama, apparently the most famous in Japan. It was nice and relaxing but it did not last as long as I would have hoped. Germany definitely has the better spa experience, from what I can see!

We also checked out the castle there from the outside. It is up on a big hill, so you can see around town. It was a nice walk.

The cool thing is that the best way to get to Hiroshima today was by boat, so we got to enjoy the sea a bit. If only I didn't feel so sick from that poisonous sushi.

    Did anyone else feel sick? Hope you feel better. When do you head back?

      No, just me. I am lying in the hostel now. I didn't get a good sleep last night. I was in a lot of discomfort around 4am. Akemi, the Japanese girl I met, said it might be because I am not used to raw fish. In any event, I thoroughly did not enjoy the sushi, so I won't do it again.
