Traditional Japanese Inn
Hakone, Japan
May 14th & 15th, 2001

We stayed at a traditional Japanese style inn with a hot spring bath in Hakone National Park. This is the view from our room. We walked out from our rooms wearing wooden "geta" on our feet to walk around the garden.

This is one of two adjoining rooms at the inn. After soaking in the hot spring bath, we wear "yukata" or cotton kimono. Breakfast and dinner are brought to our rooms and we sit on the floor and eat at low tables.
Kayli with her Grandma and Grandpa Kimura (from Syracuse, NY). Japanese meals use many small dishes.
After we finish eating, someone comes to our room to clear all the dishes, move the tables out and lay out our beds.
