Visiting a service station

Ayako and I went for a short drive today around the coast of the lake. There is an old hotel that we can see when we go for walks and we wanted to check it out. We found that it is now closed but will become a part of a local school.
We continued driving and found a back entrance to a highway service station. We decided to check out this local service station since I know we will never actually use it when on the highway. Here is Ayako walking towards it:
I found that it is one of the best service stations I've seen in Japan with a large park for relaxing from driving and a beautiful view of the lake:
Here's another shot looking in another direction. Kanzanji area is behind Ayako and our house is to the left of this photo:
We decided to get some snacks while we were there. Here I am waiting for a banana-custard crepe:
It hit the spot:
We continued our nice drive through the forest on the way back home with stop-offs at the library and the supermarket (where everything was 20% off - Woohoo!).
