I traveled to Shikoku recently, catching the Shinkansen to Okayama and then the train to Takamatsu, crossing the Seto Ohashi Bridge. This is a stunning set of bridges that links Honshu to Shikoku. There are 2 other bridge routes to Shikoku, but this is the only one that trains go across. The view from Washuzan looking over the bridge was fantastic.
I took a few snap shots around Okayama Station when I was visiting recently. Looking back on them, I wish I had taken more. The weather was really nice…
Okayama's Korakuen has been in existence since the Edo Period and has entertained many important guests through the years. It is considered one of the three famous gardens of Japan and is designated as a Special Scenic Location under the Cultural Properties Protection Law.
When visiting Izumo Taisha I tried the well known Izumo Soba. It was a little dry but otherwise quite tasty.
Konan, the detective was out in Okayama and Miyajima, when I visited, welcoming people and inviting them to tour the area. Are you a Konan fan?
Snapped this shot from the train window the other day, showing an Anpanman train.
