Had super heavy breakfast and continued on his Shrine's journey. Overall Akita shrines were quite hard to find even with the car GPS. Some of them are hidden in the tiny road areas that you won't think of driving in. The most wonderful discovery we made was kakunodate town. We drove across the bridge and the sight of sakura was breath-taking! Usually most of the towns of course will have sakura but its only in a few areas, like playgrounds, garden etc.. This town has it almost everywhere. We then realised this was a famous town for sakura viewing and many japanese tourist will drive here to visit the town. We knew it must be very hot tourist area as all the locals were displaying signs for chargeable parking at the stores or houses lol. Very smart of them.
