The Rising Sun is taking its own sweet time
6am. I'm right now wide awake waiting for the sun to rise. About 3 hours north of metro Tokyo, a little bit more west - Kinugawa Onsen, Nikko-shi.
I've been up since 4.30am. First parking myself in the steaming outdoor ofuro. With a clear view of the icy sky, I thought I'd catch the first warm rays of the day here.
By 5am, the winter steam kinda winded me and I quickly sought refuge under the thick blanket in my room.
With the window shades wide open of course. I've the same view here as the one in onsen.
The stars slowly faded as light finally invaded a few minutes ago. It's getting brighter but slowly. The sun is in no hurry here in the mountains. The river seems to be taking its cue, even the flow seems a little more sluggish in this lazy glow.
Maybe I should pop back to sleep.
