treking/biking the 88 temples of Shikoku

while i was living in japan one of my greatest dreams was to do the 88 temples of Shikoku. Because of time limitations I had to go by car(FREAKING SUCKED I WANTED TO GO BY BIKE). But yeah, this place was unbelievable. We were driving along huge mountain roads that overlooked beautiful rivers and lush forests. we took dips in the hot springs that could only be reached by old lifts and ate some shikoku soba! That was one of the most brilliant trips of my life. too bad i was in a car. I will return one day to do the temples by bike. I am not the greatest writer in the world but my wife sure is. check out our trip on her (our) blog. http://ronandjuni.blogspot.com/2008/12/iya-valley-chiiori-house-and-oldest.html
