Nagano-Tokyo
At 8 am I got traditional japanese breakfast, interesting experience (steamed rice-gohan, miso soup-shiru, grilled salted salmon-shiozake, tofu-freshly prepared, sea weed-nori, green tea, pouched egg, vegetable-gomaae, pickled vegetables-tsukemono, soya sauce). Back in room I made myself tea and enjoyed the view.
It was time to move to Nagano by train, 850 JPY.
In the city, there was a festival with many groups performing the lion dance.
Also, many flowers were on display.
On my way to Zenkoji temple there was a big crowd, they had holidays in Japan.
I had tea ice cream and some sweets on a bamboo stick (Mitarashi Dango – rice dumplings in sweet soy glaze), 400 JPY.
The last fast train to Tokyo was 8740 JPY. Some views and trying to get some sleep. From the main station, I walked to the imperial palace, and just saw the outer garden.
From there I moved to Capsule Hotel Block Room (29€) with two metros for 180 JPY.
Went out for dinner, fast-food fried chicken (rice, soup, cabbage, radish) and beer (free water), 1200 JPY.
Back at the hotel, it was time for laundry, 200 JPY washing machine, 100 JPY dryer, 100 JPY detergent. After showering, it was time for planning in a claustrophobic room, 150 JPY Coca-Cola.
