Sunday Kimono 10 - Ginkgo

Snapped a photo of these two stylish women (and their friends)  in the best Kimono posing for photos and strolling on Jingu Gaien Ginkgo Avenue in Tokyo. Kimono and fur!! How do they walk in those sandals???

A Multicolored Carpet

The interwoven leaves and trunks of the illuminated maples at Hogon-in Temple looked like a multi coloured carpet or maybe a ceiling.  Loving autumn in Japan - especially at night time.

A maple and a bird


While in Shinjuku park on Sunday I spent some time watching this bird slowly thorough a reflection filled pond.

Strolling through Shinjuku Goyen


Andrew and Siena arrived in Tokyo on Saturday night.  We spent Sunday exploring Shinjuku Park, walking around the new Olympic Stadium and searching for Gingkos.

Sunday Kimono 9


Todoroki Gorge was my target for a Saturday exploration.  At the temple in the gorge I watched this couple pose for photos, with minders showing them where to stand and how to throw hand fulls or leaves.  Her kimono was brilliant.
