The last post covered day 1 of cycling the Shimanami Kaido. A route that connects Hiroshima prefecture to Shikoku.
The second and final stretch of the cycle was nicely overcast, which as well as keeping the temperature down, also made the views out to sea incredibly quiet and peaceful. Scenery that not only matched the feel of life on the islands, but it also perfectly captured the serenity of the day — a Sunday.
All in all it was a truly fascinating weekend that culminated in us making our way over the Kurushima Kaikyo suspension bridge. Once the world’s longest, it was a sight to behold and a similarly impressive experience crossing it, making it the perfect end to a thoroughly enjoyable journey.
