Tokyo to Izu Oshima
... You could buy almost anything including cigarettes and beer and an isotonic drink named Pocari Sweat. In Tokyo we saw cigarette vending machines and soft drinks machines, but no beer ones.

Back at the inn, we had to negotiate all the rules about what footwear one has to use. Take outdoor ...

From Ito City, I took a bus as ther eis no train in ...
