南紀熊野古道フリー切符を使って、熊野古道の通り峠と丸山千枚田ハイキングに行ってきた。フリー切符は3日間有効で、バスも乗れるのでお得！最初は1泊2日でキャンプする予定だったけど、1日目が雨模様だったので晴れた次ぎの日に日帰りで行ってきた。
2時間半のコースなので、ゆっくりできる予定が、帰りの特急列車に間に合うバスに乗ろうと思うとちょっと急ぎ足。
熊野駅では時間があったので、図書館でゆっくり。とても面白そうな本が沢山あって良い図書館でした。
I used the Kumnokodo pass and went on a hike to Maruyama Sennmaida, one of the Kumano Kodo trails. At first, we were planning to go on a two day trip, camping at a nearby campsite but since it was raining on the first day, we just went on a day trip the second day.
It's only two and a half hour hike. But it turned out that we couldn't take it too slow to make it to on time for the bus back to the train station.
With plenty of time for the train back, back at Kumano Station. We killed the time looking around the library. Which had a great collection.
電車に乗る前に駅前の和菓子屋さんがおすすめしてくれた、丸山飯店の中華定食。大きな骨付き鶏唐揚、卵焼き、チャーシューにご飯とスープが付いて800円。すごいボリュームで食べきれないと思ったけど完食。帰りの電車では和菓子屋さんで買ったどら焼きも。
We had dinner at a Chinese restaurant that was recommended to us by the staff who runs a Japanese sweet shop. This big fried chicken, egg omelette and sliced pork with soup and rice for 800 yen. Not bad I think. I wasn't sure if I could eat it all but managed to eat everything before catching the train. I even ate dorayaki that I bought from the sweet shop on the train!
