Day 2 - Rice Surprise

At the top of the hill, overlooking the plum orchard there was a little shed with two middle aged women decked out in white hats and aprons, selling plum preserves and products and serving little cups of a warm rice drink spiced with ginger. Kaz explained it was like sake but non alcoholic and I was a bit suspicous at first but with the little cup instantly warming my hands I found it incredibly delicious and invigorating, the ginger picking up my mood and spurring me on to the next adventure of the day.
