Watch your step
Daishoin steps in the rain (Miyajima, Japan)
@JapanTravelcom @Muzachan
Sometimes, when you are navigating slippery, rocky steps in the rain, you need someone to watch out for you.

Kilauea Iki Trail, Hawaii
At times on this trail I felt like I was on another planet or a Star Trek set.
Okunoin (奥の院)
Koyasan’s famous Japanese cemetery
One of my favorite places on this earth is this cemetery in the mountains of Japan. I’m dying to return.
Toyota Museum (トヨタ博物館)
History lesson in Toyota Museum (Nagoya, Japan)
These types of museums aren’t normally my thing, but when you don’t have any plans on a brutally hot and humid summer day in Nagoya this is a decent place to be. Unlike the museums I visited on this same trip in Korea, this one had air conditioning. I had no desire to leave.
Part of this museum deals with Toyota’s first business (when they were known as Toyoda), the mechanical loom. The rest is, of course, about the automobiles and includes many early models. Japanese models/tour guides are happy to tell you more than you’d like to know about the cars. I don’t know if the models speak English, but most of the displays are in (broken) English as well as Japanese.
View from Castle Inuyama
Inuyama Castle (犬山城) panorama
I have posted the view of Inuyama Castle from the other side of the river several times. However, today’s 20+ photo photomerge is of the reverse view a little earlier in the evening. I was standing on a corner of the castle so this panorama consists of more than 270 degrees of view. The boats in the river housed the fireworks that were set off an hour or so later.
