Ellie's going back to England tomorrow (just for a holiday, she's coming
back again in 2 weeks), so we all went to Joyfull restaurant tonight as a
send-off. Joyfull is pretty similar to Gusto - Japanese and Western meals
at a cheap price in a nice casual atmosphere. I had potato zenzai for
dessert, the first time I've had zenzai in a restaurant, and my god it was
filling. And delicious! I also had a bacon and penne gratin, which was the
first time I've eaten cheese in a long time. That was sooo good too.
Going to the onsen last night with Ellie was really good. It was the first
time I'd been to that onsen (and the second time I've been to any), and it
really was as good as the recommendations said. For the equivalent of
£3.00, we got to spend as long as we wanted in the onsen, which consisted
of several different baths (some hot, some REALLY hot, and one freezing
cold), a Jacuzzi (which was a nice cool break from the hot baths), a steam
room (which we only stayed in for about a minute as we could hardly
breathe), a sauna (complete with a TV), and these very relaxing "water
massage" seats. The best thing is that the Jacuzzi and the hotter baths
were in an open-roof section, so we could relax under the stars :) As
Ellie said, an onsen is really the place to go if you're in a bad mood -
you never fail to feel relaxed and happy afterwards!
After that, we ate ice cream from the vending machines at the onsen, and
then went to Gusto where I had lots and lots of iced hot chocolate. It
really was a fantastic night.
