My photo tour finished up yesterday, and I have thousands and photos and memories and things I could say about this fascinating country. In the past week, I have seen a tiny bit of Tokyo, stayed in two traditional Ryokan (inns), walked an icy mountain path to see snow monkeys, and travelled on numerous trains through cities and countryside. And I’ve eaten — oh I could do a whole post on the food alone, what a dining experience this has been!
At the moment, I am staying in Tokyo for an additional three nights so I can explore some more of the city on my own, so the adventure continues. But now that I’m not on a tour itinerary, I wanted to take a few moments to share some of my photos. This is just a taste, a glimpse into the amazing country of Japan.
In the meantime, I have more photos to take, more walking (oh so much walking!!) to do, and sights to see. Onward!
Just getting to look at this page more closely this time. Wow. Some winners here! You were lucky to get such a great photo of the geishas!
Thanks Moira! Yes, it was wonderful seeing the geishas, but I also felt sorry for them, as they had to walk by so many tourists all trying to get photos of them and only the rare person showing respect. I guess they get used to it.
