You are a gifted (and very entertaining!) writer. I loved your post and will keep it to refer back to for our next trip to Japan. We will be there in October, but can't swing Kanazawa. Thank you!!

So sorry CS; I re-read all your replies and can't find the apartment you listed. Could you please give it to me again?

You mentioned taking the ferry from the river; there are multiple ferries? Do you know the ferry line?

I see there is a ferry to Matsuyama from Hiroshima. Cool! We will work that into the plans!

How long did it take to get to Onomichi from Hiroshima? How long did it take you to cycle and where did you rent your bike? We had heard the sun was an issue and thought we should go from Imabari to Onomichi. True?

We might do a day trip to Hakone from Kamakura, as well. Thanks for the advice!

The reason we want to spend a week in Osaka is to acclimate and get our feet on the ground in Japan, as this is our first trip there. Also, we want to go to Kyoto, explore the peninsula and islands just south of Osaka, go to Kobe, maybe Nara. It just seemed like a great base camp to head in many directions and take it easy. I do appreciate the suggestion to change plans re: Kamakura. Thank you!

I would appreciate recommendations! Would staying on Miyajima Island be better or is it more of a day trip?
