Last night I met up with the film crew in Tokyo at the apartment they had rented in Asakusa. We went for dinner at a small place recommended by a guy working in a knife-shop that served ramen noodles that they made fresh in the restaurant.
Since the last train on our trip from Tenjin Lodge to Nozawa Onsen yesterday got cancelled we ended up spending a few hours in a small town in the middle of nowhere called Tokamachi.
