The #SanInLine wends its way down to the sea, tunnelling through the hills between tiny cove villages, sprayed by waves and almost seeming to come from another time, another reality.

Definitely sit on the seaside side (as it were) if you can. #Japan

The views from the #SanInLine are utterly stunning, especially in the snow. We’re the first train through — the line is uncleared, the only other occupants being a murder of crows on the track enjoying their breakfast of something bloody, presumably squashed last night and now railkill sorbet.

This is the #SanInLine local train, which quickly speeds through #Tottori on its way to #Hamasaka, some 45 minutes up the line, where we change for #KinosakiOnsen.
