Tsunoshima 角島


They call this place 'horn island' because they say the island is in the shape of an cows horn. whatever, you can't really tell. Located in yamaguchi-ken, off the north-western tip of honshu, tsunoshima was to be our little weekend destination with me, nikos the greek, and some of my lab folks...they say the sea water looks like okinawa water...well, i have to say it was pretty clear stuff.


backseat: the greek, me and kiho-chan


frontseat: hana-chan and yokopi


right before entering honshu: kitakyushu fish market...


...so you know we had to stop for some kaiten-zushi!




off we were to the island, taking what is actually the longest toll free bridge in mainland japan.


yea, the camping spot was pretty much next to the beach. nice.


japanese style: lil' evening bbq.








local camping folks: fun and games...


japanese obsession: the hana-bi session








of course, some of that beach fun in the sun...


tombo = dragonfly






with school just about over, i felt like i had to go to a place like this to make my summer break official . but at the same time, is summer break just a euphemism for going back home?..ahhh! already??
