It was cold, it was very cold.
I fell asleep as soon as it got dark.
It was already sleeping around 7 o'clock.
I woke up late at night because I am too cold.
I thought that the tent was moisture condensation ... When I tried rubbing it
Parapara and ice came down from the ceiling.
Because I wore kappa and my feet also cooled down,
Take out the stamp book from the rucksack, put it in the head side ...,
and I went into a sleeping bag again and I put sleeping bag feet in the backpack and slept.

Measures to wear ---

The secret for travel success is how much I can reduce what I bring to travel.
As usual, criteria for judgment are:

I do not buy the things that is convenient if it will be there.
I buy only something that will trouble if I do not have.
0712
I reversed the tent, that is, once pull out the pole, turn it over,
Insert the pole again and I carefully dry it.
Vinyl dried at the far right of the photo was hung inside the tent as an inner tent.There was a lot of dew condensation.
I will not hurry because I do not have a temple to visit today.
0817
When I was drying tents and sleeping bags, the children in the family who were doing auto camp near me approached and asked "What are you doing?"
I was cold last night and talked about the ice falling down from the ceiling of the tent and And we became friends.

I put together my luggage and left the campground.

I slowly descend along the river.

This settlement bridge is under construction.
It was changing over the two spans in front.
It seems that it has not been completed yet, and it was a road closure, including walking.

I had lunch on the bridge.
After that, I returned to the road and was organizing my luggage.
3 Women in the neighbor were at rest in that place.
One of them was wearing a cane.

I talked with them something about Shikoku Pilgrim and Shimanto-River.
Then,She said me.
"Would you like to drink a tea in my house".

I was treated to the tea at her house.
I was surprized at the tea ceremony.
It's tea was the art of serving powdered tea.



She served me with green tea.
she put a powder tea into big teacup.and scrabbled and did hand over me.

Thank you very much.
We have various experiences during the pilgrimage.
