Ieshima Island BBQ

On Saturday, September 22nd, Katie went with some friends to an island called Ieshima, about a 45 minute ferry ride away from Himeji, for a Japanese -style BBQ, swimming, and canoing!


When we went swimming, the water was the perfect temperature and you could see your feet and little fish swimming at the bottom. The canoing was fun, but not very "exciting". We tried to leave the little bay area, and we were out for about 5 minutes when a speed boat came up to us, and a Japanese man told us, very sternly, to return to the designated canoing area! (Of course that was all in Japanese).


The food for the BBQ was delicious! Our Japanese friends spoiled us,and cooked SOOO much food! It was all delicious! The island was beautiful! And the company kept was even better! It was a great day!

Oh thank you, thanks a lot ! my guide-book was very poor about this Ieshima I plan to go to, and now I can figure it well. Of course pleasant yet not extremely exciting place (nothing "wild", I mean), but in this area of Japan what could we expect ?
I'm an old French bloke, a frog, a snail eater (all is in the sauce)and I applause to your happiness !
