The Great Seto Bridge (Seto Ohashi Bridge) is a 13.1 km long series of bridges hoping across 5 of the Shiwaku Islands in the Inland Sea joining Honshu (Okayama) to Shikoku (Kagawa). It is a double deck bridge with cars on top and trains on the lower deck. The longest span of 1,100 meters is pictured above and the road here is 93 meters above the sea.
徳島ラーメンがご当地グルメとして有名です。大歩危には「にし利」という徳島ラーメンのお店があります。そこで徳島ラーメンを初めて食べました。あまりのおいしさに、スープまで飲み干してしまいました。徳島ラーメンは普通生卵が入っているのですが、この店ではゆで卵が入っていました。どのように調理したのかわかりませんが、その卵がすごい美味しかったです。他のトッピングは、チャーシュー、ネギ、メンマ、もやしです。豚骨スープに濃口醤油やたまり醤油で味付けされたスープです。また必ず立ち寄りたいお店です。
There are various yokai monsters on display at Roadside Station Oboke. There is also a Yokai House and Stone Museum, but I didn't go in.
I stopped at Roadside Station Oboke again on the way back for an early dinner and tried the 'inoshika burger' at Cafe & Jibie. The burger was very good. It contained not only a decent portion of veges, but they also tasted very fresh. The salsa was also very tasty. The warblers were singing nonstop while I was enjoying the food and scenery.
