Right!
I had a very early start because my day was made up of travelling from Takamatsu > Oboke > Nagoya. I had hired a taxi to take me around Oboke so I can explore the beautiful countryside!! The company I was using is called (Kazurabashi Taxi) and the prices were decent compared to other parts of Japan where it hurts my wallet.
You can pick out a custom tour and they will quote you on the time it takes from start to finish. I decided to start as early as possible, with the first train out I would arrive around 7: 30am to get a head start to see: The Peeing Boy Statue, Kazurabashi Vine Bridge, Biwa Waterfall, Ochiai Historic Village, Ochiai Village Viewpoint, Nagoro Scarecrow Village, Oku-Iya Double Vine Bridge and go on a lovely afternoon cruise called: the Gorge Pleasure Boat Cruise. Which all in all would come to: 26750 yen for 8 hours.
I was very excited and it was the highlight of my day!! My feet were feeling a lot better and the swelling cooled down after a foot bath and a nights worth of good sleep! The first direct train out was at 6:04 am towards Nakamura and I made it without fail! Had my luggage too!! Which was fine since I could leave my luggage in the taxi! Also, because it was the early train, it was very empty and quiet.
Journey away!!

Ah the joys of travelling haha. Early starts and late finishes, but the taxi was a good idea.
