After yet another sand bath the campers are homeward bound on a jetfoil. Good timing as the rain has set in.
Back to reality well rested and eager to return to this quiet oasis.

He brought a box of fruit with him at 7am. All he wanted in return was “gasoline” for breakfast. He was satisfied with sake mixed with Jinro.

Lots of stone carvings all over the island to marvel at.

Box of fresh vegies from the garden of a sweet local sushi shop owner. He has taken a shine to us after we helped him yesterday as he was trying to deliver sashimi to some people in the camping area. He couldnt find them so we scored the order of fresh squid, yellowtail and beer. He visted again later last night with more beer then this morning with the vegies and local sake. This further confirms my belief that a little kindness and a smile to a person in need is often repaid ten-fold. In this case a hundred-fold.

First port of call Ooshima island - 6AM. We spent the night sleeping on an open and windy deck in our sleeping bags. I slept surprisingly well.
