T-Bone


Monday Evening

T-Bone Steak 

21st September, 2015

7th Anniversary. 









The stairway to the restaurant. Very cool. 














The most wonderful T-Bone 
arrived. 


It was simply delicious..... 











And where we would be without garlic bread ? 



Not a morsel was left. 
Truly an unforgettable evening and restaurant.

21st September, 2015

We had already planned to drive North West
to the Sea of Japan. 
It was such a beautiful day. 





Some photos around Akita and enroute. 










There was such a lot of people at Akita Marina and I can understand why. 
I would have been happy to spend the day lazing in the sun there, too. 















There was a roadside police PR event checking that everybody 
was wearing seat belts, helmets etc. 



The power poles are designed to shed snow in the winter. 
Akita Prefecture gets a lot of snow. 





Todai - the very cool lighthouse. 






The coastline, looking towards Korea, is wild, windswept and most charming. 








In a way, this part of the coastline reminded me of Cornwall, U.K.










Famous food; tasted great. 






Heading south down the coastline looking for lunch. 



Just magical clouds ! 













Good Driver ! 


We went to a simple cafe-style establishment for lunch. 

Waiting impatiently .......... Hurry, Hurry ! 













This low rock wall was interesting to me; very long, very chunky, perfectly laid. 
How old was it, I wondered ...... 






Heading back near Akita Marina. 





View from the hotel room, almost beside Akita Station.
