日本: Gateway to the Alps

Matsumoto Castle

Matsumoto. "Gateway to the Alps." The Japanese Alps, that is.

It's a town on my way back from Yudanaka Onsen and I stayed for a night. Because it was lovely. With a castle and great pottery shops.

I found a cookie there that spoke to my soul. It had the word 'HUSTLE' written on it in icing. It spoke to me. I ate it.

  2. Hustle as in move quickly or hustle as in sell illegal substances? I guess either works :)
