b'Explore the mountains, rivers and caves of Okutama, set to one of my first favorite podsafe songs "Forget The Girl" by Hollow Horse, courtesy of the Podsafe Music Network.

I first heard this song on the tartanpodcast about six months ago and really loved it.

Last weekend my caving club had an end of year party at Hatonosu, a two hour train ride from Tokyo out in the mountains bordering Saitama.

We went to an onsen and it started to snow. We then went to a nearby tourist cave at Nippara and had dinner at a restaurant beside an emerald green river. It was great.'
