Give us a twirl

Back blip

We visited Matsuyama today. First stop Dogo Onsen, the oldest and most famous hot spring in Japan. Then on to tour Ishiteji temple, a sprawling Buddhist compound. Our final stop was to Matsuyama Castle.
 
In one of the covered street markets I saw a cat and her kittens on a chair behind a stall. The first cats that I’ve seen on our trip.
 
The blip is of one of the tugs in this port. We had just had a demonstration of this small ship’s ability to ‘turn on a sixpence’ (as the saying goes).
