Noko Island

Noko island was my first Natural world of Japan trip. It was only a short bus ride and ferry ride away. When you get off the ferry their is a small little square of places to buy some food and other things. I ended up buying an ocarina by the end of the trip. There was also a great burger place which was the first real burger I've had since I've been here. 450 yen for a delicious burger, totally worth it. Besides the food, Noko island is a really pretty beach perfect for just relaxing or sitting around sketching. Other than that there probably isn't much to do there.




































A note on Japanese buses. Did you know, when you get on the bus and not using a bus pass, you grab a little ticket stub so the bus driver has a count of how many people are on the bus. Yeah, our large group of foreigners didn't know that. The poor bus driver had to do more work and take a head count because of us. Also, you also pay when you get off the bus instead of when you get on.
