Tooling around in Miyajima

It is amazing how 2 words can make one  incredibly happy:WESTERN BREAKFAST! I have forgotten the immense pleasure that a bowl of corn flakes can bring-arguably one of the best single dishes eaten on this holiday, each flake exploding with a myriad of charismatic flavours.
We then wander to the Otorri Gate and then head up the cablecar to Mt Misen for some fine views and then back into town. Miyajima is oyster lover's paradise which makes 50% of our party very happy. Deep fried oysters for lunch and then wander around the tourist and deer infested shops. Onsen and then dinner served in our room by our own geisha, including sake with gold leaf.
