Christmas with Liz

So, we spent Christmas in Tokyo & Kamakura & Kyoto with Fiona's sister Liz. Here are some selected highlights from our trip...





Karaoke in Shinjuku on Christmas Night
















Crazy cosplay girls (and boys) at Jingu-bashi, Tokyo













The giant Buddha (Daibutsu) at Kamakura. The temple holding it apparently washed away in a typhoon centuries ago, but the Buddha itself stands.






































Kiyomizu-dera in Kyoto (at right) with sunset over the city.













Goodbye at the Shinkansen gate.
