A most auspicious omen: this rainbow appeared as we arrived at Mori Station...mori (森) is the character for "forest" and is sometimes how I refer to my last name in Japanese!pic.twitter.com/aoFIrLUK5Y

chimped out a little after this selfie, took my coat + shoes off to wade in the surf, splashed saltwater on my face and hair (worth it), hooted and holleredpic.twitter.com/qbAAOVX8uH
climbed back up to the station--note the old rails used in retaining walls, and the concrete channel for the stream to mitigate erosion!--but still had time before my next train so I tried some more trails...pic.twitter.com/AJNdPqWErP
