Today we left Himeji and made our way by train to the island of Shikoku and the town of Kochi. The train journey took about 3 hours.
Shikoku seems be quite mountainous and there was a lot of beautiful scenery on the train ride over. We even went through some falling snow and we got super excited that it would be snowing in Kochi. But alas, it was almost warm in Kochi.
We found our hotel, checked in and then trekked off to find some lunch. It's a lot less touristy down here and most of the restaurants don't have English menus which makes it a bit tricky. We strolled the shopping arcade and then eventually decided on some ramen.
After lunch we continued walking around exploring the local area and then went back to the hotel for a nap.
For dinner we spent a loooong time wandering around trying to find a place we liked the look of. There are a lot of choices but its difficult to decide what is what when the menu is in Japanese and doesn't have pictures. We eventually stumbled into CoCoIchi which is a chain where we ate the night before but decided it was a safe choice.
Bit of a rest day today but hopefully we can get to explore more of Kochi tomorrow.
