Fun in Tsunoshima

We had a great time in Tsunoshima. First, we stopped at the observation point and took photos of the lovely bridge. I had actually thought that the bridge was in southern Yamaguchi, so I was pleased to find out it was much closer than I had thought! We headed down to the island, drove around for a while, and ended up at the lighthouse. It was pretty nice, but farther down from the lighthouse, there was a really nice beach park. There were some strange sculptures, one of which looked like a whole bunch of strange silver poles sticking out of the ground at an angle. Needless to say, I had great fun climbing all over it, and thankfully, Tom joined me in my silliness. After, we headed down to the beach, where the sea was beautiful, and then around the beach to a random tori gate. We then walked around the park, which, for some reason, appeared quite British. We couldnt put our fingers on it, but somehow it was. And then we headed back to the lighthouse. You couldnt go up the lighthouse. It might have been because it was an actual working lighthouse, so the building next to it was quite high. Up we climbed, and looked through the viewfinders. It was a bit of a strange location, as they faced away from the sea, but it was still a pretty view of the island!
