Five weeks to go! Saturday it rained all day so Sunday we decided to head out and find the Ryugashidou caves. It is just North of Hamamatsu. It took about one hour to get there with lots of little towns to go through when you are on your way there. It cost 650 yen for adults and of course Julia is free. It was a fun little day trip. Outside the entrance there is a dragon made of shrubs and it blows smoke and has red eyes. Julia was a little scared at first and then walked around saying "dragon" the whole time we were there.
Stalagtites and Stalagmites
Little tunnel Julia and I started down and she freaked out and turned back. It was just her size so I can't say I was disappointed when she wanted to turn back.

| Right behind us was a huge waterfall coming down from the top somewhere. |
 |
| There was a little cover so you would not get wet but stairs were wet. |
 |
| This was called the Phoenix Cathedral |

A little park outside the cave. They also had stairs up the side of the mountain to a little shrine. But it started to rain and at this point, we have seen a lot of shrines.
They also had some amazing fossils so we bought a little version of one. Then off to Jolly Pasta for some lunch. Tuesday is a holiday in Japan (The First Day of Spring) so hopefully we will have another adventure. You have to love all the holidays they get here.
