Thanks a lot. Yes, the area of izu is spectacular. It was a huge volcanic island millions of years ago which gradually crawled towards Japan and eventually hit it. The volcanism has created so many areas

Yes, very simple compared to Italian churches. European churches have a lot of their interiors intact still. I'm envious.

It's nice, but very hot...

Thanks for the interesting information. I'm thinking of going to Gunma soon, so I'll definitely check out that area. Your photos look fantastic!

Those pictures are fantastic! The picture with all the people in the river and relaxing looks like Japan in the summer. Its great to go to the cool clear rivers in the summer time here

Yes, it is spectacular, and a really calm and relaxing place. Thanks for reading about it!

The island is surrounded by rocks, but they put in an artificial beach to get the tourists in. Shimoda has the best, but crowded beaches, but there are nice beaches along the Izu coast, less crowded.

Thanks very much, I'm happy to hear that!

Oh really? That's interesting! Im glad you liked the pictures!

Always good to be prepared. I'm more worried about crop failures from global warming. Japan gets most of its food from other countries.

Yeah, this was a nice event for Mishima as it's not a big city. Most bigger cities in Japan have the fantastic 500 yen, one coin lunch passport's or ramen ticket books. But not Mishima, so this was a great

The beer was what did it for me too, yes. Very difficult to eat it all

That's fantastic advice. I'll try to remember that in future. Thank you!

Yes, it was lovely. There's so many great seafood places in Japan along its seashore

Thank you very much!

Great!

Wow!

I'm not sure about this, for example, everyone who has eyes can see the first 6 planets in our solar system and their movements, so it's not that spectacular to think that some Indians managed it as well
