下北半島の冒険の続き。尻屋崎灯台を見て、寒立馬も見かけて、餌も与えて、次の目的地に出発。目指すんのは薬研温泉郷にあるかっぱのゆ。
Nearing our next destination.
目的地に近づいた。
This was the remnants of a railway that was used for logging beech trees.
昔使われた線路。森林はブナの森です。
Just so you know I was there.
薬研に行った証拠です。
And here we are at the "Kappa no Yu". A statue of a kappa near the parking lot.
かっぱのゆに到着。駐車場の近くにある河童の像。
Time to enjoy a nice hot outdoor bath.
これから薬研にある有名な露天風呂に入ります。
The bear says we're open for business.
熊さんが開店中と言ってます。
Married kappas bath
The outdoor bath / かっぱの湯の露天風呂
You can enjoy a free foot bath at "Kappa no Yu" as well.
かっぱの湯で無料の足湯もあります。
Public phone booth made of wood. Very stylish.
公衆電話ボックス。木材でお洒落ですね。
Before heading to our lodgings for this evening, we went to one other hot spring area. The place is called Shimofuro in Kazamaura.
今夜に泊まる宿に行く前にもう一箇所の温泉郷に行きました。それが風間浦村にある下風呂温泉。
Shimofuro Onsen / 下風呂温泉
Ticket machine for the bath.
温泉入りチケットの販売機。
The small structure is the toilet at Shimofuro Hot Spring.
トイレが温泉の外側にあるこの小さな建物です。
We had made reservations at a minshuku or guest house in Ohata Town. The name of our guest house was [Matsu no Ki].
今夜の宿は大畑町にある民宿に予約されました。民宿の名前は「松の木」。
The cost for the evening was 8000 yen per person which includes a meal with fresh sea urchins.
一泊の料金はウニ付のコースで一人様８千円！
I bought this Rape Blossom Beer at Yokohama Town's Roadside Station.
横浜町で購入した菜の花ビール。
More beers before dinner and a bath.
夕飯とお風呂に入る前のビールもうちょっと飲んでました。
It's beer time!
ビールの時間だ！
Cheers and dinner is served!
夕飯を食べる前の乾杯だ！
Dinner time!!
夕飯の時間だ！！
Fresh sea urchins. My wife was very excited and I think I let her have one or two of mine as well. She ate five of them if my memory serves me.
新鮮なウニが出ました。妻は超喜んでた。確か自分の分の一つか二つは妻に上げた。自分の記憶が確かならば、妻は５個も食べた。
Scallops with miso in a shell. This was so good.
帆立味噌焼き。美味しいです。
We were also served some tempura.
天ぷらもありました。
Squid is also very popular in the Shimokita Peninsula.
下北半島ならイカも有名。
A dish called mozuku. It's pretty much seaweed marinated in vinegar.
自分はもずくあんまり好きじゃないんですが、食べました。
Some type of grilled fish.
焼き魚。どういう魚か知りません。
A small plate of sashimi with squid and tuna.
まぐろとイカの刺身。
Some mountain vegetables I believe.
山菜と思う。
The dish is now heated up. An Aomori specialty called kaiyaki miso. It's grilled scallops with miso and mixed with an egg.
これは青森名物の貝焼き味噌。
We also enjoyed the small bath at the guesthouse.
民宿の中のお風呂も堪能しました。
The only thing left to do is turn in. Tomorrow we will be heading to Osorezan.
夕飯も食べて、お風呂も入って、あとは寝るだけ。明日の目的地は恐山。
