As I'm getting tired of writing, and I took a pile of photos today on the ol iPhoneroonie, here's a Photoblog thing about our drive from Akan to Ben's apartment in Rausu-cho, in the bastion of wilderness that is Shiretoko (the Bed of Wisdom):
Kushy, the sea monster thought to inhabit Lake Kusharo
A slanty look at Nakajima, the central island in Lake Kusharo
Kushy Attacks!
A look inside the Kusharo Onsen...with naked consequences.
More Kusharo Onsen
And more onsen
There's no doubt that the water in the Kusharo Onsen is natural as the steam from it turns all of the faucets a burnished black and rots the mirrors.
Looking slick
The gaseous mountain whose name I can't remember between lakes Kusharo and Mashu
Warning. Exposure will turn you livid yellow-green like the sulfur vents!
The end point of our short hike in Shiretoko
The mountains of Shiretoko
More Shiretoko mountains
The ladies in the park
The number of deer in Shiretoko is ridiculous
And they're almost Miyajima tame
Behold: BEERMAN!
Everything's bigger in Rausu: the ashtrays....
...the beers. This is 1L of beer for 1,000円
Ben, our host in Rausu, telling us what's what at his local Izakaiya
