Kintaikyo in Iwakuni. Our favourite little, historical bridge.
Gion in Kyoto. If you keep your eyes open you may catch a glimpse of a Geisha. Careful though, they may not be real. We saw a couple of genuine ones - lucky us!
Reaching out from the heavens. Note the blue sky!
Note the rain drops and white sky! Miserable weather but everything was still so beautiful.
Beautiful in pink. This flower was in my favourite place to visit for cherry blossom, the gardens of the Heian Jingu (shrine) in Kyoto. Who would have known that such an amazing garden would be tucked away from sight?
For Mum. Such little secret delights wherever you search. Keep your eyes open and you never know what you will spot. This pretty little flower was growing amongst the moss at Ginkakuji (the Silver Pavilion).
Also at Ginkakuji, the BAD moss... Notice the sign attached? Moss the intruder. Hahaha, funny.
