The overnight bus departed at 1am and arrived in Nagoya at 6:30. Grey, drizzly weather. After dropping of my luggage at the hotel, I got right back on the train and headed for neighboring Gifu prefecture.
I stopped in Ogaki to visit an art museum and the local castle, then went to Gifu City where I saw a garden, a Daibutsu (giant Buddha statue), and took a ropeway up mountain to see another castle at the summit.
Back to Nagoya from there, where I had a late afternoon nap to help recover from too few hours of sleep on a bus. Went out for Indian food, and now back at the hotel. Still tired, so I'm turning in a little early...
Here's what I saw today:

| Nice fall colors to be seen from the other side of the castle, looking down the mountain |
