Emiko, my wife, received the invitation letter to the special tour celebrating
her birthday from Club Toutrism Chiba (CTC).
It is the tour around Miyagi and Fukushima Prefecture visiting several
famous places.
The fare was a little more expensive than our usual trips, but we decided
to join the tour glancing through it.
The title of the tour is long as follows.
3 Days, Sept. 27-29 2015
Celebrating Your Birthday Staying
at the Most Recommended by CTC
Hotel Ryokusuitei at Akiu Spa, Sendai City
and
Hotel de Premier Minowa, near Goshiki-numa |
It was raining a bit when we left home in Urayasu City, Chiba Pref.
But as the bus ran upward on the Tohoku Expressway, it was getting better,
and finally was a perfect fall weather when we arrived at the visiting
place in the suburbs of Sendai City.
This fine weather was not changed during our 3-day trip, and we could see
the harvest moon in the first night.
If it had been a usual trip, we would have had to leave a hotel early morning at 8:00 and to arrive at a next hotel around 5:00 p.m., and during the whole day would have made a quick tour of scenic places and historic spots.
This trip was different since it was for the birthday celebration to the
senior participants. We started from the hotels after 9:00 a.m. and got
to the hotels around 4:00 p.m. both days. The hot springs before dinner
were better said to be comfortable than healing.
We visited only limited several places, so we could have enough time to
enjoy them. What feeling would I have had if 20 years ago?
I am going to look back on the relaxed trip mainly showing the photos.
The following is what was about the places we visited this time.
