日帰りの草津温泉A day trip to Kusatsu Onsen

August 17, 2008: 長野に来る理由 Reasons to Come to Nagano

Kusatsu Yu-batake

お盆のピークが終わって、家族とドライブしてきました。本当は奥志賀へ行こうとしたが、志賀高原の上が雲の中でした。従って、途中でプランを変更して、白根山を通って草津温泉に出ました。私にとっては15ねんぶりでした。子供達を連れて、テルメテルメのプールでたっぷり遊びました。その後、草津の湯畑の辺でぶらぶら。うらやましい事で草津はやはり楽しめる事が沢山あります。この戸倉上山田温泉も頑張らなきゃ。
草津温泉は亀清旅館から車で約1時間半。
With the O-Bon rush over, our family went for a drive today. We tried to go to Oku-Shiga but as we reached the highlands, we found ourselves in the clouds. So we switched plans, and drove by the Shirane cauldron on the way to Kusatsu Onsen. We took the kids to Therme Therme Land and played in the pool. Then we went to Kusatsu's famous 'Yu-Batake', a chain of small pools used to cool off the hot mineral water for use in the baths in the town's ryokans. We were jealous of all the attractions Kusatsu has. Our town, Togura Kamiyamada, has to try harder!
Kusatsu Onsen is a 1.5 hour drive from Kamesei.
