Today I want to introduce a town called Tomonoura.
I went there more than one year ago.
First of all, I went to Hiroshima prefecture on business on Saturday.
After finishing my work, I met a friend in Fukuyama.
The next day, I visited Tomonoura.
I was interested in the town because I heard the setting of the movie, "Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea" is there. The directer, Mr. Miyazaki didn't say that. So I don't know if it's true or not, but I wanted to compare there to the setting of the movie.
The movies made in "STUDIO GHIBLI" are my favorites. They are animations and for kids, but I can get some profound messages from them.
Tomonoura is a very small and old town. There are many steep paths and the road is made of stone. It was too difficult to walk wearing pumps!
There are some shops. I wanted to visit there, but I didn't have enough time to visit there....
Actually I'm not sure if this town is the setting of the movie, "Ponyo". It seems like that, but it's not the same...
Anyway I enjoyed traveling. But I went there alone. I prefer to travel with my favorite friends!!
