Ninjin no Sato

One of the highlights of our holiday was visiting Ninjin no Sato, which is a kind of theme park near Shuzenji, with a good view of Mt Fuji.



It has extensive gardens and 3 villages: an English village, a Canadian village, and a Japanese village.

This is the English village.






The Japanese village (Ninja no Sato). You can try different traditional games and crafts in the different houses.

There was also a minature steam railway.

Hannah and Musashi

Hanna was very happy to see Musashi again. And Musashi seemed very happy to be with Hanna. Despite the abuse he suffered from her.



Musashi would go round to sit with Hannha, and have a massage.  From time to time, he had to give her a scratch to remind her not to be too rough.
