We stopped by South of Shiga Prefecture in a place called Hamaotsu, Otsu City as we had our fun drive, where the famous Lake Biwa also known in whole Japan as the mother of all lakes.

Weather was not on our side,we went early morning to avoid the rain in the late afternoon according to the forecast but still we we’re caught by noon! Rain started to pour. Since we arrived, we decided to ride the Michigan Cruiser And we didn’t regret it! It was FUN!!
