Scene in Rural Shikoku


En route to Uwajima city, we stopped for a bike ride along the Shimanto River passing farming hamlets, small shrines, fields of daikon (large radish), citrus and vegetables. It was such a scene of rural tranquility that I fancied myself riding through the landscapes depicted by Hayao Miyazaki in his animated filme, Totoro.
