Nakasendo Day 4
Start: 08:45
Finally cloudy and not so hot (22℃)

中山道の4日目は涼しくて良かったー
昨日の首と手の日焼けはまだ痛かったw
ちょっと疲れたので短く、写真なしにしますね。

Today I’ll keep it short and without pictures because nothing much happened and I’m a bit tired and want to rest.

So this morning my legs and feet were still so sore and even walking only a few kilometres gave me some pain.. So we kept things slow with a few more breaks today. My right ball of foot had some pain today and my right knee felt not too great too – probably because I put a lot of pressure on them yesterday due to my blister on the left foot.

今朝は起きてから足の疲れはまだ取れてなくて上手く進めなかった。休憩を増やしてゆっくりと行きました。
やっと豆の管理や防止は少し分かってきたかな？足は慣れたかわからないけど。
ただ足と筋肉は痛いw

A good thing though that I start understanding how to handle blisters and didn’t get new ones today. Rubbing my feet with Vaseline was something I read online to prevent them, and the existing ones are taped up so that my feet look like Michael Jacksons nose. LOL

Today we finally left Saitama and are in Takasaki, Gunma prefecture.
22km only today but I hope to recover and be better tomorrow.
Here is how much we made in 4 days:

やっと群馬県についた！
高崎まで22 kmしか歩いてないけど。
また明日は元気になるといいね。雨の予報ですが。。
