Japan day 11


It's another beautiful day in gunma. We're off to nikko today. Today we check out ieyasu tokugawa's final resting place, i think. I read about this place before but don't remember if it's his tomb or a shrine dedicated to him or both. This morning we went to a gas station to fill up and it was quite cool. The station was manned by young and pretty girls who acted like traffic controllers as they guided your car into position. Then there was some bowing and several sentences said in japanese. It was kinda fascinating. I'm not sure if it's like that at all stations. We went with sachiko's father who speaks almost no english so we couldn't ask.
