Cycling Day 41: To Koka
I was recommended to visit the Koka Ninja House, and it wasn't too far away today, so I did. Not much time left to cycle on elsewhere afterwards though, and I've still not worked out my next move to get in some mountain hiking...

Otsu - Lake Biwa
Koka Ninja House
This place was recommended by my roommate Dorris, a German cycle-tourist, in Onomichi!

I did the shuriken throwing experience at the end. As expected, none of my 6 shurikens hit the target, but the one I got to throw again, as it was just on the floor, I managed to get in the target board!
Park Campsite
It seems that I'm the only one staying. Suchern would not be impressed at the 2000 yen per night and extra for showers, which are down a hill and close at 10pm. Probably could have got away with wild camping, although today has been a bit on the hot & sweaty side of things!
I had hoped to get to a few campsite on the site of lake Biwa, but there wasn't time after visiting the Koka Ninja House. That slow puncture on the back inner tube has returned too, so I'm having to pause to pump it up again from time to time! Maybe I'll get around to fixing it before I set off in the morning...
