There is something seductive about big cities. Tokyo would have seduced and left you wanting for more. This place is at a whole different level to any big cities I have been to. I absolutely love it. I almost feel at home here.

After following you through your journey, we are much tempted to visit Japan again. Haven't been there for years, and the last time, I went to Kyoto, I had this Japanese friend who drove me around in his van. Even then, I enjoyed the scenery a lot, especially visits to temples. By the way, at some of these temples, they claimed that you will get rich if you drink the water flowing from the springs. We all drank a lot!!
ReplyDeleteDid you drink the water Sue ? No wonder Uncle Lau is so rich. I think we had better made a trip there to drink the spring water.
