Rainy, rain as expected

There was a gecko in the tent.
0755
I put him on the brim of a hat and put it outside.
For a while, He was watching outside, but he left and gone.
Where did he come from?
Perhaps, I may have brought him from Kumakougen
(久万高原).
Then I did a bad thing to him.
That is what came far. Even the sea is coming over.
He(gecko) can not return now.I am sorry.
0756
It's still raining.
0853
Little by little, I gathered all my luggage together.
I will go out.
0858
I get on the ship and return to the land.
I do not need a ship fee to the land.
0931
When I reached the land, I wiped only the rainwater of bicycle saddle that had been getting wet all night,
I put down my luggage and rowed.

I practiced running on a rainy day.
Practice running in the rain Akishima.
When rain and slope overlap. Yabitsu pass

0956
Some people are walking cheerfully in the rain.
1008
Sometimes the sidewalk is gone.
1030
Imabari, the industrial complex has come into sight.
As usual, the rain continues.
Of course it is better to have sunshine, but rain does not bother me so much while running.
It rained for 50 days during the commuting time last year.I wore kappa and ran 30 kilometers each time.
And I tried How to do when it was raining and I also practiced sloping roads with luggage loaded.
However,In a rainy state,it is very annoying to enter a convenience store and enter a restaurant.
And,Such a bothersome time for lunch is approaching.
A little early lunch
Joyfull Imabari Onishi store
I'm really just doing JOYFUL
1108
"Joyful" here was a flat store.
In other words, the parking lot has no roof.
There is no place to stop the bicycle,There is no place to take off the kappa.
There is no place to prepare for entering the store.

Among the "Joyful" I used to date, only this shop was a flat shop. And today, now, here,I am in the rain,It is rainy only for today.

There is no place for sheltering.
I went to the shade of the building,It will rain there as well.
I managed to take off my luggage and managed to take off my kappa.
It is raining all the time while taking off kappa and changing clothes.

From this point, my visit-speed has become as fast as the car-ilgrimage.
Because it is a car, though it is supposed to be faster.

Indeed, when I left the temple, car pilgrimage was still in the middle of worship.
So, I ride my bicycle and arrive at the next temple ahead.
Arriving at the temple, avoiding rain, luggage and stand up the bicycle, in the middle of the work, the car came in and burned closed the door and went to the main hall.
He will walk my head quickly over there with an umbrella.

That will be repeated for each temple
I become increasingly miserable.
1227
I put the bicycle next to the mountain gate.
Please look at this baggage.
I thoroughly reduced it.
Nevertheless this size.

I can imagine how much luggage is being piled up by a radoner and so on.
People on the pedestrian walk will have more baggage for a longer period.
Because it is a translation that carries it on your back, people in walking are really hard, I respect the pedestrian walk.
With this eaves, I will not get wet.
1238
I will talk to the pedestrian who pushed the dolly under the guard for a while.
The content of the story has already been decided.
Rainy things, coldness, things about today's inn, etc.
Are you reverse walking? "
After talk about,We walked and went around before and after.
When I see a 100 yen vending machine, I bought something and got a habit of collecting 100 yen coins, so my wallet has a lot of 100 yen coins.
1245
My bad habits left even after I got home.
I have a lot of 100 yen coins in my wallet, even now.
1258
Still it will rain.
Rain does not usually keep getting down.Though it always breathes
Today 's rain has fallen all the way.

Since bicycle GPS broke, I am using a 7 inch tablet terminal for the time being.
In the rain, I put the tablet terminal out of the backpack, opened the lid and swiped the screen.
I will expand the map by expanding it with fingers, but because the screen is wet, it does not spread nicely.
I try to protect the tablet so that it does not get wet by the rain, the rain drops fall from the kappa's hood this time.
When I try to wipe off the drops on the screen, the screen runaway this time.

When I am doing that, the car entere in temple grounds and close the door and the peoples go to the main hall.
He open the umbrella,they walk fast with a quick walk..
I am still wet and sad person.
I have not decided the accommodation tonight.
1504
I managed to enter under the crossover and devised measures.

First of all, I have to decide an inn.Next, I will make a prediction as to how far I can visit.

I switch on Wifi, connect to the Internet and make a hotel reservation.
I will stay at the hotel Imabari Station Hotel.

So, the question is whether you can visit the 58th
仙遊寺(Senyuuji).
It is "possible" in terms of time.
It should have an amazing slope here and it will rain.
So, I will stop visiting
仙遊寺(Senyuuji) and after visit 栄福寺(Eifukuji), I will finish today and head for the hotel.

This is over today.
My back is wet with sweat.Socks are also wet.
I feel like it's getting cold somewhat.
Today there is no plan to put up a tent, even if it rains or is cold, it is OK as we only escape to the hotel.
1523
Rain.It is raining heavily.
In the hotel, I could put my bicycle in a corner of the restaurant.
When I usually go to the room, I wash closes, take the bath,after I feel refreshed, go to dinner,but today I was tired.
It was also troublesome, I ate a convenience-box lunch.
