Lunch stop: tomato donburi and beef broiled rice set.





The lunch lineup.





The first footbath, up the hill from the town.





The temperature here was very good, and because it was away from the busy part of town, there were no other guests at the time.





The second foot bath spot - it was more crowded. Water was not too warm this day either.





The third foot bath spot, a nice onsen with these interesting faceless characters as mascots.





The water temperature was nice here.





This was a famous place where you could eat and bathe your feet at the same time. They had some famous snack food available, but we weren't hungry so soon after lunch.





The venus bath was our fifth of the day, a little small.





The sagi foot bath was around the corner - a nice temperature and nobody there, which was just as well as the size was pretty small.

The museum foot bath was the only one we had to pay for. But the temperature was great, view was great, and the stones were soothing to the feet. For the day, altogether seven foot baths.
