Sightseeing with Hiroko, pt. 3

This beautiful garden is supposed to have a calming effect as the observer peacefully meditates with reverence while taking in their naturalistic beauty . . .
. . . As you can see, you can practically taste the reverence :)

Now this is more like it! This is one of my favorite pics of them all and Matt took it.

Definitely want to click on it to really appreciate the composition and lighting.

I can't put my finger on it but something about this image is iconic and nostalgic at the same time.

Just the four of us. In Japan. Good times. I am not sure what tall tale I am telling here but I AM sure that it's probably illegal in 37 states. Hey, at least it got our minds off the scalding hot water!
