We've stayed out way too late and now we have to find a place to sleep. Neda checks online to find nearby accommodations
It's after dark as we pull into a suburb on the outskirts of Hiroshima. We find a youth hostel, that's a bit more modern than the ryokans that we've been staying in lately.
It's typical budget accommodations, dorm-style rooms and shared bathrooms. Good enough for the 10 or so hours we'll be staying for!
This is the common area, the Japanese kitsch continues!

What country will that route be in?

If you could ride 1/2 as good as you think you do, you would be a pro.

Every time I buy a ticket, I say, "I'm not going to work tomorrow." Somehow, I always end up back at work.

But if you sold the house... and maybe a rich Girlfriend from the past died and left you the fortune ... then you could get a toy hauler and hit the road on the Honda 450 for a few years

Lottery has better odds.

Wow, I've been off the forum for a year and a bit. Not sure why, but I'm busier in retirement than I was when working. Anyway, it's great to catch up with you guys, at least to this point. Hope you are both well. Will the journey return when things get back to 'normal'? I'm truly envious.
