Japerçu


Japan has been much in the minds of most of us this past three weeks. Our daughter-in-law has just flown back to be with her family in Osaka. Caroline's recent student, also from Osaka, returned the day before. It is perhaps not a time to be far away from one's homeland, even when the affected area is far to the North.

On our 2009 visit, we travelled mainly in the central area. I have now put together a picture album with some impressions of what we saw. It's available via the Blurb publishing site, where you can also preview it online.

    Beautiful! And lot's there I recognise, including the extraordinary graveyard on top of Mt Koya.

    Did you climb through the Buddha's nostril hole in Nara? (Shame there isn't a picture if so!)

    No, but Mini did! (More her size.) I was laughing too much to get a good photograph.

    I squeezed through it! Quite hard work though...
