Hotoku Ninomiya Shrine in Odawara

After visiting Izu-Inatori on Saturday, I took the train to Odawara on Sunday.  




Hotoku Ninomiya Shrine is a short walk from the train station.



The trees were beginning to bloom and it was such a pretty day.











After leaving the shrine, I continued up the hill to Odawara Castle, but I'll save that for another day.
