For once in my life Day1

I traveled sometimes.
By car,moto,bicycle,hitchhike.
But it was first time for me "walking tour"
Day 1. it was fine.

9:30, I arrived North-Naruto bus-stop.

















Gand-Naruto Bridge.
Here,Shikoku. There,Awaji-island

















I want to see "Uzushio of Naruto" (Sea swirl)
Under the roadway of the bridge, there is a pedestrian pass.
Walk above the Sea
But at that time,it was out of season.
The swirls were small.

















Then I walked to Naruto-station.
So fine day.
"SAKURA" (cherry blossoms)were in full bloom!

















Cycling road was calm. I'm glad.

From Naruto-st. to Bando-st. I took a train.

From here, pilgrimage road starts.
Walked 600m from Bando,arrived #1 Ryozenji-temple.

















There were many rookie pilgrims, me too.
I bought "Byakue" (white vest of pilgrim)
and "Sugegasa" (sedge hat)

Then, walked 1.4km,  #2 Gokurakuji-temple.


















it was 17:00
I must look for a place "sleep in the open"
it is economy
But that day, I was slow of perception.
When I found sports-park,it was quite dark.
I was quite tired.
Very cold night, I wore all my clothes.
Whith  a sleeping-bag and mat,
I slept under the eaves.

from Bando-station
to Itano
walked about 5km

#1 Ryozenji-temple
#2 Gokurakuji-temple
