Play it again, Sam
Nov. 17th, 2007 11:19 amAnd one more post sharing Japan pictures. I'd been to Nara once before, but it had been after spending a good portion of the day in Fushimi Inari so I'd been somewhat tired and we'd only gone to see some of the sights. I was also a little more willing to spend money to go inside temples in my sad desperate need to collect temple/shrine signatures. lol For those who don't know what I am talking about, at temples and shrines for around 1000 yen one can buy a small book which for usually around 300 yen you can have many temples and shrines sign their names in calligraphy. I'd not have known about it if not for
muscatlove and
yanchamonkey. Unfortunately, since I didn't have this book until my March 07 trip, I've been trying to re-visit some of the temples and shrines I'd been to before, as well as new ones to fill it up. It's a bit like sketch books which I am slowly filling with original sketches by doujinshika.
( Sadly I never made it to Yagyuu )
Friday, I spent the morning waiting for takyubin and then went to Osaka to do some shopping. Saturday involved packing and seeing some friends before catching an earlier train to Tokyo. I really liked the 2 new hotels I tried this trip, and found the bed at the last one particularly nice. *hearts* The flights back went surprisingly well after all my troubles getting to Japan. I had a few scares getting to the Nagoya airport, but since the airport is so small everything worked out.
Thank you everyone for viewing my pictures. :D
Next up on the travel itinerary, Utah!
