Enoshima

Today I visited Enoshima. It is a small island to the south of Fujisawa. There is a temple on a mountain top there. The views of the ocean are amazing! The scenic view made up for a monk that brushed me off when I asked about some kanji outside the temple. On the way to the temple it was cold and rainy due to the typhoon that passed by. This meant that there were no visitors at the temple upon arrival. Fortunately, the weather quickly made a turn for the better which provided a great opportunity to enjoy the temple without the crowds. Only after reaching the top of the mountain, I had to chuckle because I discovered that you could avoid the difficult climb and the slippery steps by riding an escalator. One good thing about the typhoon was that when the weather improved, all the clouds cleared to provide a direct shot of Mount Fuji! After walking around for about three hours, I think I got my exercise for the day.
