A lot of Japanese celebrities and wealthy people have second homes here.
We should've checked out this place earlier, it was waaaay cooler than Tokyo, especially in the shade!
This hamburger had an apple & shoyu sauce, the hamburger was beefy, loved the salad that was served too
Satoshi had all sorts of things on his plate, he whacked it before a photo was taken...
I had thought Mikado Coffee was from Karuizawa but they are from Tokyo!
Why there was a preserved prune on my soft serve I do not know
Still this was delicous!
can you see the wedding couple?!
We weren't able to see inside this church because they were having a wedding ceremony at the time.
I've been wanting to see this stone church for some time, built in 1988, designed by Kendrick Bangs Kellogg to honor Uchimura Kanzo, "the Japanese Christian evangelist who founded the Nonchurch Movement in 1901, promoting the philosophy that religion should not be building-oriented, that where you pray is the church" from Atlas Obscura

Unfortunately we didn't have enough time to view the insides of the stone church because they were having a wedding and we also needed to catch a bus to the area we would be staying.
On this day they were having a mosaic art exhibit...how cute is this bear made of rocks?!
We met a new friend at Mihara Denki (there was also a black cat that reminded me of Malia)
Dinner was delicious.

Pasta with proscuitto, broccoli, homemade pesto & meat sauce
caesar salad
katsuo (bonito) carpaccio : a little too fishy for me
clam chowder : was starting to get full so I was glad this was a thin type of soup
loved the dining area with large windows and screens to feel the night air
steak with homemade onion sauce (not shown)
vanilla ice cream with mango
the pension we stayed at was pet friendly so furry ones could sit in the dining room while their family ate their meal

It was a long day and we got to see quite a bit.
The weather was still blazing but at least in the shade it was cool.

Looks like a really fun day! Thanks for sharing Kat!
oh oh another site for my bucket list. My boss and his family spent winter there to ski and snowboard. When we were researching, I guess because of winter, I didn't think I would like there but looking at your pictures...I wanna go!
