Cycling in Japan, Kansai Countryside.

It was very early in the morning.
It's 4.30 am.
The sun, shining through the lazy morning and
most people still having a good sleep
As pre-planned a day earlier, I was already
in my thick uniform and glove to cycle around
countryside.



Leaving Fukusaki in a very cold weather, breezing but
very refreshing air and wonderful scenery.

On the way passing through The Kansai Country Club,
few farmers have walking around their fields.
doing their morning vegetables picking.
Even some old people do jogging while
enjoying fresh air and beautiful morning sunny skies,
but the sun still reluctant to show out her face.
The mist was heavy.



This is me, with my "basikal tua" in Japan. Stopped by
at "Jidohanbaiki" for some fresh drink.
You also can buy noodles, cigarrette and other
food starve here.



After 2 hour ride, I reached at an industrial area
in sub-urban of Kansai.
Parking my bicycle at Kansai Sanyo Plant for a
tour around. It was not 8.00am yet and nobody
was around to ask for a guide.
If you cycle on wrongly side of Mount Iimori,
you will end up to a long route back. 

I was lost in the countryside and in the hilly road
toward another small town called Hojomachi.


Later, I continued my journey through the Japanese
village and talking to old people about their daily life
and culture which all of them were very friendly.
Even asked for a short cut back to Fukusaki town.

I found the experience was very interesting beside
having my Japanese language much improving.

By evening I was back to my place, Fukusaki-cho,
tired and exhausted with nice memory in mind.
Sayonara.
