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. We wondered if they had been banned. However much to Kevin's delight, Joan identified a beer machine which Kevin had to test.
Back at the inn, we had to negotiate all the rules about what footwear one has to use. Take outdoor ...
Japan moto trip (Izu Skyline)
Day 2: Izu Skyline
All I can say is, you MUST ride this, and any/everywhere on the Izu Peninsula at some point in your life. You must do this especially if you consider yourself a keen moto tourer.

This hot spring still exists, but cannot fully be bathed in. It is now a foot bath which is still very enjoyable seeing as you are sitting literally in the middle of ...
Owl City Concert, 7 Waterfalls and a Sunset
... is good yes, but as the view often is moisty, cloudy or foggy (at least when I was there) I prefer the clear view sunset.
From there it isn't far to a very good restaurant, which my boss and I visited on another motorcycle tour. We ordered and rodered everytime we returned, the Wasabi steak. A delicious steak with wasabi dressing, some wasabi with it and noodles and salad and all the other good stuff :-) It's really really good! ...
