On Josh’s recommendation, we took the train to Kamakura, only a short ride on the suburban train system but on the coast and full of temples. Having visions of a lovely leaf-strewn walk under the autumn trees, we set off up this hugely steep path. (My Fitbit claims I walked up the equivalent of 52 staircases). But it was magical. Some more autumn maples – it’s okay, we’ll spare you – and some gorgeous temples to be seen too.
Please tell me this is not a Buddha traffic cone…..
Loved the angry fox
It is, it is! I’m confident I spotted a Mt.Fuji traffic cone this evening but M is not convinced. I too love the fox – he’s really intense and, yes, sort of furious.
Bet Josh knew how many stairs were there!
Ah, but would he have told us? Not sure he did this walk.
Great photos. Did you catch the Shonan Monorail (suspended train) from Kamakura? It’s a wild ride.
No we didn’t. Sounds like a missed opportunity – we need to come back soon!
You both look so well 😘 Xx
Thank you – must be the sushi and temporary diet!
There is only so much sushi one can eat in one sitting. And even less tempura!
It looks like a carved traffic cone.❤️
Well, yes – that’s what we thought – sort of a religious traffic cone?
You are having such a fabulous time! Got to get there.
You do! Wonderful month here has come to an end, but we have plans to come back!
Looks like a great walk
Rather tougher than we were expecting, but really pretty and satisfying. Not to be done in summer or rain!
Lovely pictures of each of you – Miriam in particular!
Thank you! Think we have benefitted from all this raw fish (though practically raw duck the other night did stretch things somewhat).
