Not lost at all in Japan

Here we are, back from our trip in Japan, a most enjoyable journey indeed
We visited Tokyo, Kamakura (in the alps), Kyoto and Nara... including an unknown number of Temples and Flea Markets (!).  So here is a sample of the 1500 photos...


Flea Markets, shops, friendly people (these two ladies are helping Lily negotiate)























The philosopher's Path, a splendid walk from temples to temples and more (temples)

Nanzin's Shrine, one of the most amazing ones, with endless wooden galeries up and down the hill

The red road, impressive path with thousands of Tori's running on 4 kms (south of Kyoto)


And some more impressions





In Kyoto, our favorite restaurant in Gion (went there two times) a team of nice ladies prepare delicious pancakes







Meditating over my next project (Japanese Garden in Montpellier some day ?)
