Today, Landon and I went on another Monday morning hike. This time we visited a town well-known for its tea- Ureshima (not sure if I have it spelled correctly). First, we visited a park and saw a lot of waterfalls, some wild ducks and 2 snakes (yuck!). Then we all piled back into the bus and took a quick drive up a mountain to a popular resort/hotel where we walked inside to take a look around. The owner was very nice and even invited us to come in and take a look at the hot springs. I wasn't too sure at first that I wanted to do that, because there were naked people bathing in the springs, but I really wanted to see an unsen (or hot spring) so I took a quick peek inside. The springs looked so peaceful and relaxing. The Japanese love hot springs and use them often because they believe the springs are theraputic.
