Nikko Bound
We’re heading up into the mountains again this weekend. For not being as nature-adverse as I am, we sure do go up into the mountains a lot. Nikko’s a quick 2-hour jaunt outside of Tokyo, full of temples and shrines. It’s an old town and I expect to have a lot a historical pictures when I get back. I’m excited!
One of the shines houses a Benzaiten statue. (Remember how I love her? She’s my patron saint of design. Huray for intermingling cultures.)
In other news, Dana arrived last night. I’m looking forward to spending some time with her! Welcome to Japan! Also, I wanted to throw out the offer of postcards again since I’m winding down my list from last time. If you’d like one, send me your address! (grimord at gmail . com)
