We have now arrived in Osaka after travelling through many interesting and wonderful towns. Japan is an exquisite country, with friendly gracious folks and fabulous food. The cities are large and modern and the regional areas are picturesque and so very serene.
I will have so many stories to share with you but in the meantime here are a few more photos.

The Show Monkey! That’s the exact same look that I have on my face when the alarm clock sounds in the morning. 😂
Mmm that is interesting. It is a lovely park. Thanks Lyn
Such nice pictures, Lyn. The colours of autumn are starting to show. I loved our time at Nara park. :)
How fun was Nara Park. We loved the deer who just demanded food and attention the entire time. Cute as, great experience
Such a great trip you had!👏👏👏
Thanks Miky. It truly is. 💕
Belle foto! I would need an extra valigia in Japan to bring back handmade gampi paper and rice glue! Sayonara, Cristina
Thanks Cristina. Yes take an extra bag. I bought some beautiful origami paper. Lyn. I am going to be in Vancouver Island next year
You will have to let me know if you are in Vancouver!
I will be and I will do
Lovely photos Lyn; I loved the Golden Pavilion especially its mirror image on the water. And as for the little furry baby with the peals; priceless.
Thanks Sue. Yes I love the reflections also. That little doggie was just such a little sweetheart. Lyn
I was there in Osaka in 2014 with my family it’s awesome! Go to Kobe about an hour away. Small little island where my daughter lived while her husband worked there.😁
Yes Osaka is a great city. Lots of green space and lovely architecture. Kobe next time. Thanks Lyn
