Fukushima : Tamagoyu, Takayu onsen 1/3

Tamagoyu never lose severe earthquake.

took my mother to Takayu Onsen because she was suffering from heavy pain so that she couldn’t sit down on a sofa.

Speaking of Takayu, yes, my longing place, and my most favorite onsen resort. Especially, Tamagoyu is best.

Tokyo station has changed much. There are few cafes than ever.Too much foods shops ! I feel uncomfortable more and more. Well, there is a face right side. It’s my mom. Not ghost 😛

新幹線乗り場前で時間まで休憩　＾ω＾）・・・これおいしかったけど氷が多すぎる。

Going up to platform, very new Joetsu Shinkansen “Toki” was there.
So many people took this picture 🙂 I took, too. It’s cool !

ぴかぴかの上越新幹線「とき」。みんな写真撮ってました。かっこいい♪

I bought a pork-cutlet sandwich and chickens gristle karaage for eating in the train.
This karaage was spicy and crisp. It went well with beer. Though I didn’t drink. My mom drunk a lot.

グランスタで買ったカツサンド（キッチン大宮）と軟骨の唐揚げ（鳥麻）でもこんなに惣菜屋増やしてどうするよ。。。

This was the first trip by Shinkansen in quite a while. The last time I took Shinkansen was for Tamagoyu !
This was 4 years since.

Four years had passed!
But nothing had changed in JR Fukushima station.

久しぶりの福島駅。雪が降ってた。相変わらず人少ない。

Though, the cafe has changed in its name and appearance.

福島駅構内のカフェ。前回来た時とは違うお店になってる。しかもきれいになってる。

After a while, my ryokan bus came. And the bus took us to the ryokan.
Tamagoyu (玉子湯)
My mom and I love this ryokan. They have great onsen and some open-air bath.
Especially, this ryokan is famous for the old bath hut.

玉子湯についた。送迎バスで30分くらい。

Small exhibition room about their onsen.

フロントの脇の通路を行くと展示室があって、玉子湯の歴史を知ることができます。

Takayu Onsen declare they use water flowing directly from the hot spring source. Of course, Tamagoyu, too.

高湯温泉は「源泉掛け流し宣言」をしています。加水・加温一切なし。だから外湯がぬるい　＾ω＾）・・･

Takayu onsen was judged 10 well-known hot spring in Tohoku ever.

玉子湯は東北の名湯に選ばれたこともあるらしい･･･って古！

We couldn’t see the bath hut well from our room. Far from the bath hut…
This time, we took the cheapest plan, so we were prepared such a room that have not good sight. It couldn’t be helped. But our room was next to the big bathroom.So when we had some spare time, we could take the big bath.

This is the bath hut. I couldn’t take the picture well because of the snowstorm.

It is a opaque hot spring. Strong sulfur spring. There are many people who visits the onsen for treatment of their wound and disease. Well, my mom, too.
Also me ? yes, I visit for healing my broken heart …. 😛

夜になると、不気味なくらい静かでひっそりとした雰囲気。これがまた好きヽ（´∀｀）ノ

I like taking the bath by myself in silence, at night.

There is also a open-air foot bath.
There were a lot of hot-spring incrustations in the hot water.

足湯もありますよ。外湯の一番奥に。ってこの雪、やばいね。。。

吹雪いてる中、入りました。ええ。この写真撮るためだけに(`･ω･´) ｼｬｷｰﾝ
