Last weekend Kristen and I went on a great adventure to Fukui prefecture to stay in a traditional Japanese style straw house (hut). It was a great journey through sun and rain, around, through and up mountains, and twisty turvey roads to reach our desination. Once we arrived the clouds had cleared (for a while) and we could enjoy the beautiful nature around us. I have never seen SO much green nature and bright blue skies!! It was very quiet and relaxing.
Inside the house there were two very large rooms for sleeping, a very large kitchen with an old fire pit in the middle of the room for cooking (and maybe keeping warm in the winter) and surprisingly there was a FULL bath with shower, Japanese style Washlet AND a washer and dryer!! I think we were all pleasantly surprised.
