I'm in Kusatsu hot springs to get enough rest in the latter half of Golden Week (early-May holiday season in Japan). The special limited express "Kusatsu 83" run during the tourist seasons was full and got to Kusatsu hot springs in three hours earlier than usual.
電車の長旅とくれば・・・駅弁
A box lunch bought at Ueno station because of a long trip by train.
それに、軽く一杯・・・最近は、こんな感じでワインが楽しめるんですね・・・
Had a snifter of wine...
湯畑前で記念写真・・・
Central Kusatsu hot springs...
それで、草津白根神社に健康祈願のお参り・・・神社の周りは御神木のシャクナゲが満開で見ごろでした。
Beautiful flowers of Rhododendron around Shirane shrine in Kusatsu.
桜もほらこのとおり、まだまだ見ごたえのある状態です。
And cherry blossoms...
新生なった熱の湯でイベントが行われていて、湯畑の周辺はすごい人でした。
There was a big crowd around central Kusatsu hot springs because of a special planned event.
Unfortunately, Mt. Shirane is in volcanic activity and the rest house and parking lots are closed around Mt. Shirane.
