Kamisou Hotel

　　We stayed at Kamisou Hotel. As soon as I arrived at the hotel, I went out for a walk with my camera. Following the signboard, I found a monument to commemorate the Showa Tennoh's visit to the island. To my regret, however, caretakers of the monument didn't seem to work faithfully. The signboard was dirty and the plants around the monument were left as they were. I found several historical items like a well, water from which was used to wash off the oil, coal ash and seawater of the Russian soldiers who had been rescued after the sinking of their military vessels on May 28th in 1905. Getting back to the hotel and after taking a bath, a big party was held. It was really a lot of fun.

今日は花海荘という宿に宿泊。保守の大先輩方の話を拝聴するのが楽しみ。宿についてすぐ、カメラだけを持って付近を散策。昭和天皇の対馬への行幸を記念して建てられた碑があったが、管理が行き届いていないように思えた。もう少しなんとかならないものか。ブラブラ歩きながら撮った写真の一部を載せる。日本海海戦に関わる史跡があちこちに残っていた。ホテルに戻り、風呂の後は言うまでも無く宴会。楽しい時間だった。
