You know when the weather’s right Japan can be a fabulous place with so many world class things to do. A friend of mine is getting married soon so my Mum has popped over to Japan for the ceremony. This weekend we took her round some of the sites in Ehime, which are just great. From left to right we have the Horse Festival in Kikuma town, the Danjiri Festival in Saijo ( where massive “portable” temples battle in the river to stop the god returning to it’s temple), and the amazing Shimanami Kaido bridge as seen from the top of “Old Turtle Mountain” on Oshima island. Even things like the Asakura Towel Museum, which sounds the most boring thing on the planet, is actually really, really good and certainly worth a visit! When the weather’s right, Shikoku is the place to be!
