The Izu Peninsula 🌸🌺

Last summer vacation, I took my mom to the Japanese countryside for the first time.🌿🍃 🌿🍃 She's a big fan of Yamaguchi Momoe and Miura Tomokazu, so without hesitation,🌿🍃 🌿🍃 she put on a YUKATA in our hotel in Inatori and sang "The Izu Dancer," reenacting a famous scene from "Bloody Condensation." She was over the moon! 😃 The trip was short, but the experience was fantastic. 🌿🍃The only downside was that people in Izu weren't great with English, so we had to rely on gestures and translation apps.🌿🍃 🌿🍃 The whole trip could follow Google Maps, which provided clear routes and times. 🧡 Tokyo - Yokohama - Izu Inatori on the JR Tsurunogohan, about 3 hours. 🌿🍃At Inatori Station, we bought the JR 3-day pass. 🌿🍃We chose to stay in Inatori because of the excellent hot springs here. All rooms face the sea, and you can fall asleep to the sound of the waves at night. The white noise is incredibly soothing.🌿🍃 👇We booked breakfast and dinner to experience a full-board stay, unlocking various ways to enjoy the golden eye snapper. 👇The highlight: soaking in the Pacific-facing open-air hot spring ♨️. After soaking, your skin feels incredibly smooth. #Tokyo #Izu 🌸🌺
