We awoke on Day 3 having stayed overnight in Kochi the birthplace of Sakamoto Ryoma   who we thought was a comic book character but is in fact the Father of Modern Day Japan if they hadn't  shot him

The beachside of Katsurahama was good for Japan.

We  went on to the quaint seaside town of USA which was a highlight

This is where the Japanese made goods after the world war that they could label Made in USA.

Then we drove through these spectacular  mountains. Some of the greatest scenery we have seen in Japan.

There was no snow but just as well as the roads would have been impassable
