It was cloudy and windless day on Dec 6th, Saturday.
According to the weather forecast, it'd be raining all day.

It was not for windsurfing trip. But it was no choice for us.

About 30 people headed for Shirahara, Wakayama.

Fortunately, we didn't have traffic jam and also it was getting sunny after we got to Rinkai Beach, Shirahama. Although it was not for windsurfing, it was really pretty day.



The hotels we stayed were sooooo cool. I felt I was in the future world or in the space bases.



What they says is the buildings are made with special foams and don't need to rebuild over 500 years. It's just amazing!!

Their buffet was also EXECELLENT! They served lots of Sashimi and Sushi. That was the best buffet I ever had before!

They just opened "Onsen" on the top of the hill. Their "Roten buro(outdoor hot spring)" was just awesome! We can look down the bay and look up thousands of stars in the sky!

This is MUST-STAY HOTEL in Shirahama!

We have rooms available as of today.

Our place is the great great place to go to the Luminarie Festival!
