Tonight we stay again at a ryokan however first we have to find it. We have a rough idea where it is located but cannot see it anywhere so in the end we enter a building and ask around and find the correct place. What threw us off was that there was no sign in front of the building so there was no way to identify it without asking.
The room is typical of ryokans but what we need is actually some food so we ask the owner where the nearest open supermarket is and then go there and buy both hot and cold food so we have enough for today and the following day as we don’t have breakfast and we plan to stay one more night at this ryokan.
We eat the hot food immediately while we leave the cold food for the next day, we look forward actually to eating it especially the green tea flavored sweats.
We are getting used sleeping on the floor but still it is a bit uncomfortable and we have a bit of trouble just getting up from the ground level mattress in the morning.
The view from the hotel window of the city and mountains is quite nice and we can even see our car parked in the parking lot up front. The hotel however is nondescript and even seeing during the day we would not have guessed that it is hotel. And then on we go to see the monkeys, our host has given us some tips on where to park and we are really looking forward to see them.
