I am going to go daytrip of Hot spring cure at Hakone from now. #hotspringcure-daytrip

This time, I'm heading to a hot spring that I've never been to before as a rehabilitation for my bullet trip overseas. The first thing I caught the train about 6am. It's heavy rehabilitation from the beginning... #hotspringcure-daytrip pic.twitter.com/WMfoDg1J1G

Waiting on board Romance car for Hakoneyumoto directly. This route seems easiest way to go to Hakone. #hotspringcure-daytrip pic.twitter.com/6UvTrC98HR

Borrowed a room for one-day hot-spring cure. There is no restaurant here, so I need to bring own lunch and drinks. (Alcohol is not allowed) Photo is not allowed inside the old hut (including inside the bathhouse), so photos are from the official website.  #hotspringcure-daytrip pic.twitter.com/so1KmyrA5c

It was established in 1902. The current building retains its Taisho-era exterior, but the interior has been beautifully renovated to give it an air of elegance. #hotspringcure-daytrip pic.twitter.com/emp28INi9k

Arrived at Ubako Onsen before 9:40am. There is a legend that Kintaro was healed of his eye disease at the Ubako Onsen Shumeikan. Today I will stay here for a hot spring cure. #hotspringcure-daytrip pic.twitter.com/kB6tZlF2d2

Coarsely ground soba "Sobagaki", boiled soba, cocked herring soba, sweets. The countryside soba was sold out just before. Everything is delicious. Especially sobagaki is the best in my life so far. #hotspringcure-daytrip pic.twitter.com/vV864EEUss

Behind the Ubako Onsen Shumeikan stands Yamauba-do, a shrine dedicated to the mother of Sakata Kintoki, and Yakushido, the shrine of Hakone Gongen, who gave Yamauba a sign. #hotspringcure-daytrip pic.twitter.com/KmnMMxQKwD

Caught in a traffic jam. It's the season of autumn leaves, and it's time to go home. It's NOT unreasonable. #hotspringcure-daytrip pic.twitter.com/zjMUnOUA3h

Continue on the bus to Odawara for dinner. Have a set meal of tempura and sashimi at Daruma Restaurant. Good. Tempura fried in 100% sesame oil has a unique flavor and is delicious. Sashimi is tuna, sea bream, yellowtail. Everything is delicious. Happy. #hotspringcure-daytrip pic.twitter.com/SiuW14PRmd
