We went to a strawberry farm called Ichigoland where we could eat as much as we wanted within a 30 minute time limit for Y1500. It doesn't sound like much time, but it's plenty. After 15 minutes, even though I sooooo wanted to, I just couldn't eat anymore. You get a container of condensed milk to dip your strawberries in, and it was just sooooo yummy!
Afterwards, we had a look around at some hina doll displays, just to give our stomachs time to digest before heading to Okutou for lunch. We ordered houtou, a Yamanashi speciality which is made by cooking flat udon-like noodles with pumpkin and other vegetables in miso soup. It was an iron pot of absolute deliciousness.
I had a full, happy belly and didn't want to move, but the journey must continue. And so we headed to the final place on the itinerary, Chateau Katsunuma, a winery because Yamanashi is famous for grapes and wine. We tasted all the wines, and I came away with a bottle of sweet red as a souvenir.
It was a great weekend ;) Next week, I'll be doing a taster class in aerial yoga!
