Was heading down to pick up the little one from her cousins in Arai recently so decided to take a side trip to Arai Mountain and Spa - first time for a few years.
Approaching the mountain. Getting a bit excited.
Signs are still out. Guess still hoping for a buyer.
A contradiction. A welcome sign with a stern warning to stay out. Nonetheless I jump the ropes and head on in.
Overall the place still looks in good nick considering the years it's been closed (five).
Some parts starting to look a bit dodgy though.
Not wanting to venture in too far I left more trespassing to another day. More photos can be found here -
