All The Comforts Of Home

Well, everything you need, anyway! Staying the night at a temple run by Shingon Buddhist monks in Koyasan. About 3 hrs from Osaka by cab, train, funicular, bus, then walk. You disappear for dinner and they put away your table and chairs, and the monks set out your futons and buckwheat pillows. We have a 10 tatami mat sized room plus our own bathroom (with the excellent Japanese toilet) foyer and small balcony. Perfect. We donned our yakuta and headed for the his and hers public onsen before dinner. They know hot baths around here.
