- Wednesday, April 16, 2019 Day 35
- Temples: #1
- Tokushima, Japan
- Weather: 55-65 degrees overcast
- Miles 21.5 miles (bus, 3 trains & walk) / Total Miles 686
Yesterday arriving at Temple #88, I was consumed with emotions…the difficulty of the day, having to say goodbye to my fellow o-henros, ending a life that fits in a backpack, leaving the care of each shukubō, minshuku, ryokan, and hotel.
Today I am victorious returning to Temple #1. Confident. In grasp of the true enormity of going to Shikoku 88 Temples. Thankful I have been able to do. Appreciative of all the help along the way.
- Guaranteed success finding Temple #1
- Guaranteed success finding Temple #1. Oh, why wasn’t the rest so easy?
