When I wake up I decide to take a quick dip in the hotel bath (photo repeated here from previous post).
My breakfast is served in my room at precisely 8 AM as requested. It's much smaller than the dinner but is only half the price 1000Y.
It consists of a number of small side dishes made of mushrooms, seaweed, radish, daikon and two of the biggest, sweetest red beans I've ever tasted.
There is also a miso soup and a cold egg soba.
The main dish is a grilled Aji (horse mackerel) for which I am given some dried seaweed in which to wrap it. I also get an umeboshi which is the traditional super sour fruit that is a staple of Japanese breakfast. It's basically a plum put that has been fermenting forever.
Delicious breakfast done I check out from the Ryokan and catch the bus back down to Hakone Yumoto to begin my second day in the area.
