Back to Kochi.
Started off the morning and took a taxi to the top of Temple 35 – Kiyotakiji. Was able to walk down fine, but after several near falls on other mountains, my leg injury from last year started to hurt, and the knee I hurt by the car hitting me and horse kicking me (2 separate…

Time crunch
So I started from my hotel yesterday with ordering a cab. I had 4 temples to reach and only a certain amount of time to get to my next stay. It was a mixed bunk room. So I grabbed a cab, which was a great idea with how high this one was. The cab took…

Moving forward
Started off this morning, taking a bus and a train to get to the next town. I had to jump back up to where I ended yesterday because of the hotel I had. I am finding it difficult to find lodgings and booking them when I do find availability. I have the next 4 days…

A lot of back tracking lately
Today was 2 mountains, or one and a hill. The 1st one was 200m, and the second was 500m. Started off going back to temple 25, where my current hotel is, and I dropped off my big bag and started walking. First up was Temple 26 – Kongōchōji. It was a nice small temple. The…

And another one
I started the day getting dropped off where I finished the last mountain. I had another one ahead of me. It was cold and rainy, and I had 2 ways to choose. I could try climbing the mountain 4km up in the weather below or take a gondola up at the end of a relatively…

Another mountain
Started off yesterday at Temple 19, and my host dropped me off at a family mart, kinda like a wawa, near the mountain. I started up the mountain, and at times, it was past 45 degrees angle. I took my time. This one was paved or had earth steps most or the way, which was…

Giving myself an easy day.
I took the train to my first temple today. Temple 18- Onzanji and, looked at how long a bus would take to get me to the next one, and it was quicker walking. Train and buses went smoothly, so I made it to the temple in decent time even though it was uphill. A nice…

A little Kawaī
Just random things I saw on people’s houses on my journey and duck’s swimming in a circle.
