A quiet hot-spring break at the end of the year
She had arrived in Atami the day before sharing her account. The trip gave her a chance to spend time relaxing in the hot springs.
Her photographs record the sea during the day and the lights along the coast at night.
An evening out for seafood and drinks
For dinner, she went out to Atami Ginza for seafood and drinks. The photographs include a dish of sea urchin, skewers and other plates from the evening.
It had been a while since she had felt tipsy. She remembered it as a fun evening over drinks.
Sunrise, a morning bath and the next stop
The next morning, she watched the sunrise and took another bath. The pictures show light over the sea and a bath looking towards the water.
After shopping at a seafood market, she planned to spend the next night in Odawara.
