the Izu peninsula
is not on the usual tourist itinerary. It has hot springs, but Hakone is more popular.
We enjoyed lunch at a traditional Japanese restaurant.
In the city of Izu we visited a shrine
soaked our feet in a thermal spring, tried wasabi ice cream (the area is known for wasabi)
and walked through a bamboo grove.
Our real destination was a traditional Japanese inn. A bit rustic rather than five-star, but the service, food, and serenity could not be beat. No pictures from the thermal springs bath.
