Day 26: Niigata to Sado Island

The proprietors are charming and cannot do enough for us. Having served a meal they leave us in the tiny dining room to watch one of their laser discs. We end our first day on Sado Island watching highlights from Queen concerts.

There is one nasty shock in store. Having heard that the Kodo apprentices do a daily run as part of their training I have asked if I can join them for some much-needed exercise. They've just rung the hotel to say they're delighted to have me. The run leaves at 5 a.m. On the dot.
