As I’ve mentioned in my previous post, I will be creating a separate blog post for April 16 – 17 since a LOT has happened and if I did place it in the previous post, it would make it too long. ANYWAYS —

Before lunch, we finished walking through the entire trail and we noticed a foot bath area! Of course, we tried it and soaked our tired feet in hot water.
At one end of the festival, they were selling some goods and snacks!







We eventually had to leave the festival, so we made our way back to Tokyo (2-3 hours bus ride). We ate dinner at Ramen Street (!!!)
Then headed back to Shinjuku / the AirBnb — not before having a quick stop at Mcdonalds:
Was finally able to try this β€
Well, that was my weekend! So sorry for the late post π¦ so many things are happening and the school work is piling up really fast!
