Today I cycled to Oma, the northern most point of Honshu. It was a bit of a rainy day, but also not that rainy at the same time. In the morning I went back to Gusto for breakfast, my knee still hurting. However, when I cycle it doesn't hurt, only when I'm walking.
When the road opened up to the coast it was quite beautiful, it's nice to see the ocean. At one point a woman in a booth on the side of the road flagged me down. She wanted to give me a gift! I had to decline the cookie because of my allergies, but I happily took the almond cheese. She told me a Brazilian guy came past recently and had walked from Kyushu! What an overachiever....
Kidding of course, that's very cool. I'm sad I didn't run into him!
It was cool getting to Oma, it was busy for such a small town. There's a free campsite there right by the northernmost tip. At the tip there were many statues and things. I got some stickers and postcards. For dinner I had a maguro rice bowl, which was sashimi slices of 3 different types of fish (I think it was all different types of tuna). It came with miso soup and some sides too. It was delicious!
At the campsite I spoke to a guy who is a Japanese teacher in Tokyo, he teaches mostly south asian learners. He was 72 but certainly didn't look it!
