Day 8 in Japan: Saturday, June 6
Position: Tsuchiura
I went Tsuchiura by train. In the morning, I went to the kandatsu eki / station by bike, but there is no mark to park the bike, and there is a room parking bikes with charges, I had to park my bike in front the a little shop. There is no need to worry about bike-losing.
Going Tsuchiura with a round trip cost 380JPY, but it is only 6 minutes route from Kandatsu to Tsuchiura.
This picture shows Tsuchiura station, taken when I back Kandatsu from Tsuchiura:
This is JR East train ticket, a bit of vagueness:
