There is a slideshow and it’s [beat] so slow

in O internet,traveller's fragments

Embedded below the cut is a slideshow of my holiday photos from Tokyo, Yokohama and around the Kantō region. These images form an incomplete record of my trip, since several of my friends worked on the “best camera takes the pictures” principle, and mine was never the best. Let the achronological record begin!


Of three of the four temples I visited at Kita-Kamakura, you can read more here (thanks, Wikipedia!):

The fourth, Enno-ji, isn’t pictured because photos can’t be taken there, to protect the Kings of Hell who together sit around the walls of its main building.

(a poem for the reader who identifies the out-of-fashion title referent.)

Lovely pictures. The temple I really want to see is the Ise Shrine, the one that gets rebuilt every twenty years. In fact I’d love to be there in 2013, for the next scheduled ceremony, but the way things are going 2033 seems more realistic…

I loved the photos – whetting my appetite for our trip to Japan to see son, d-i-l and granddaughter, September! Oh yeah.
