July 2024, Japan trip--2

 July 12, 2024O


One of great things in Japan is waking up in the morning and going for onsen.

It was so refreshing and relaxing.  I went for a short walk , still raining.

After a nice breakfast, I packed up everything, left for JR station.

My reserved train to Toyama was at 11:03am.

I settled down in waiting room, then, there was an announcement of "service cancellation"- Due to the heavy rain, there were some falling rocks,  a part of railway was blocked.  No choice, I had to rebook the next available train, which was 2 hours later.

I spent time reading and writing, found a umbellar that someone left behind.

finally arrived at Toyoma around 3:00pm, my hotel is just opposite the JR station.

          

My first impression of Toyama is very fresh, modern and clean.

Since there was still early, I went back to JR station , wanted to book the train ticket to Tokyo, but the queue was so long, I decided to go to Fukui instead.

Taking the newly opened shinkansen was a pleasant experience.  From Toyama to Fukui only takes about one hour.  Fukui is famous for "dinosaur museum", but I didn't have time for that, just strolled around the street to feel the city of Fukui.

Later I had a nice dinner at isagaya near station.  The restaurant was operated by 3 man, looks like three generations, I was not sure what to order, and asked the elderly man to recommend, that was my dinner:-
       


That was really delicious.
