We started the day early. 

Around 5 AM we got up and walked to the Great torii gate. It is usually in the sea but at the low tide we can walk to the gate. It was so big and the fullmoon was so beautiful.

After checking out we left the luggage at the hotel and visited a shrine and a temple in Miyajima. 

We had a special lunch of a variety of Oyster dishes.

We enjoyed fried momiji manju and bought some sweets and went back to the hotel to pick up the luggage.
