Our last night in the four star hotel, a shame as this room was very nice, got showered and packed and checked out of the hotel. We got the train from Motomachi and changed at Akashi station and go on a huge train shaped like a plane to Okayama where we changed onto a local train to Takamatsu (I keep calling it Tiramasu, Sarah doesn't see the funny side) on the way to Tiramasu (see) we went through some alluring countryside it was open and green instead of built up and busy then we hit the coast and over a bridge which jumped from island to island, it was huge and went on for miles. The sea was all around us and smaller islands were dotted around the ocean all teaming with trees, it looked really tropical but remained very cold. Eventually we hit the island which we were going to and back into the countryside. It got more built up and we sat there expecting another stop and quick go go go it was our stop so we had to get off before the doors shut. We then walked for a while to find somewhere to eat but with backpacks on we were none to fussy. We walked half way to the hotel and found a little shopping center. We walked up to the middle of it and as always seems to be the case we went back to the first restaurant we found. It was a pointer so we pointed at two what seemed to be curry's, they came out it looked a little fancy in a big silver bowl with salad, rice, a breaded piece of meat (I thunk it was pork) and the curry sauce. The best part of this meal was it came with chop sticks and... a spoon, the first spoon I have seen since arrival, I wolfed it down like a machine, I even ate my very first salad (well it was only lettuce so maybe it doesn't count but I ate it). It all tasted like heaven, actually it tasted like a breaded piece of pork (fried) with rice, lettuce and chip shop curry sauce (but a tiny bit nicer). And for the two of us eight quid! Can't be bad. We then checked in at hotel and it was rate posh, room was a fair size and it had a spa. We settled in and then put on our Japanese Komodos which are complimentary (like a dressing gown in England) and headed up to the eleventh floor to the spa. I put my bag in the locker in the changing room bit, it was all proper fancy with balms and oils and stuff, I was in my swimming shorts and went through into the spa (Sarah was in the girls one) and to my horror there were two Japanese fella's stood there with their tails out!!! Absolutely as god made them bold as brass. Bit gay I thought tightening the cord on my shorts (they were going nowhere). I basically spent the next forty minutes hot and getting out of which ever bath/sauna they got in the hairy boggers. I was in the sauna (alone) when three other naked blokes came in, I'd had seen enough and went back to the room. Sarah followed about ten minutes later immediately laughing at my red face (due to heat not tails), she had had a lovely time in there on her own and was very relaxed, she of course found this carry on with the naked chavy's very amusing . We then got dressed and went for a walk, we arrived at the coast but the wind was bitter so we did the only thing we knew and went to get tea bags and milk, an experience in it's self as they only have milk in little single portion cartons, never mind beggars can't be choosy...choosers. Put the kettle on and had a pack of biscuits, wasn't Yorkshire tea but was good anyhow. We settled down to watch more Inbetweeners and went to sleep around ten pm.
