We visited Mochimune Beach, crossed the Ocean Bridge, and cycled 

along the Mariko River,

We stopped at the old traditional Chojiya Restaurant,and reached 

this Meiji Tunnnel.

We returned from there.

Inside the tunnel. 

It was so mysterious. The air was so cool.

Autumn leaves on the road.

Next, we visited Nishikawa Farm.

The man on the right is Mr. Nishikawa the owner of this farm.

They are growing "Jabutikaba" on this farm.

Do you know this fruit?

This is the fruit of Jabutikaba.

This fruit is from South America.

As you can see, this fruit grows directly on the trunk of the tree.

Jabutikaba Juice!  It was very refreshing and tasty.

Especially for us thirsty people after cycling.

Thank you for making us delicious juice!

Oh, pretty car! 

This car is not a decoration. You can use it.

On the farm, space is provided for relaxation.

A nice spot to enjoy tea time.

On this farm you can also experience pizza-baking on request.

We are riding back to Mochimune Fishing Harbor

 along the Mariko River Cycling road.

Now we came back to Sarry's Cafe in Mochimune.

In order to enjoy the old atmosphere of the city,

we pushed our bicycles along and walked.

Along Mariko River. 

We reached Shiroyama Plum garden.

These plum trees were planted by students of Shiroyama

junior high school near here.

Next, climbing Shiroyama.

A little bit hard for me after 30 kilometer's cycling.(^^;
