It was a short drive from the Sandanbeki  Caves to the Senjojiki Rocks. Senjojiki is an interesting tiered formation of huge horizontal rocks created by the constant erosion of the powerful waves of the Pacific Ocean over the years. These waves continue to reshape the rocks year after year. 

The name Senjojiki literally means "one thousand tatami mats" and it actually looks like several thousand tatami mats joined together. Most of the rocks were generally flat and we enjoyed walking out on them and watching the surging waves crashing around us. The powerful ocean breeze would have been quite welcome on a hot summer day but not quite as pleasant during this cold, rainy March day. Nevertheless, a fascinating visit.

It was another short hop to the Kuroshio Fish Market, a huge market packed with an endless array of fresh seafood displays and demonstrations. There were also vendors selling fruits, vegetables, snacks and souvenirs. Since we are all food devotees this made for an intriguing visit.
