Road Trip - Day 4

After some much-needed post-gravel-digging sleep, we woke up to a beautifully sunny Sunday. We decided that we wouldn't stay at the campsite for another night, so packed everything back into the car and off we went to the Kochi city centre.

We're in Kochi just in time for the Sunday market. It's basically a mile long of street stalls, selling fresh fruits, vegetables, hot food and other things.



After lunch (of yaki-tori and tako-yaki etc. at the market), we headed off to 桂浜 (Katsura-hama), a beach in the south of Kochi city.

The beach has amazing views of the Pacific Ocean, the only upset was that the beach wasn't sandy - it was gravel. Again. Plus there was a sign saying we can't swim... anyway we got into the water, sort of.

My right foot got cut on the gravel so I didn't go into the water, while everyone else did. Especially Daan, he fell multiple times as the strong waves hit against the shore.





We spent the night at an internet cafe called "Funky Time". It was my first time at a Japanese internet cafe. It's quite nice and I quite liked it. We each paid 1,500 yen for 9 hours of internet, manga, movies, free drinks, karaoke and a warm place to sleep in.
