Mornin’
No problems again from my rather ambitious camping spot. I even had time to procrastinate and try and perfect a Facebook pout, initially I was trying for a MySpace emo picture but I just couldn’t pull it off.
I am Fabio, the most beautiful man in the Cosmos.
Not bad for 7am and almost a week without a shower. If you’re wondering about hygiene my grooming consisted of showering with wet wipes, it actually worked pretty well but I guess you struggle to smell yourself 😛
The whole reason I came to Kanazawa was for the Kenrokuen Gardens, famed across Japan as the prettiest gardens and renowned for their exceptional beauty during Autumn. I may be on to a winner here.
This was the entrance.
Click on it to see a bit of movement.
I like to think of this as an Ent’s foot.
Sorry for the over indulgence but it was quite a pretty place. To juxtapose all this, upon leaving Kanazawa the land was quite bare and barren as Autumn was winding down.
The edge of the road.
From here I headed into the city of Osaka, back to the crazy traffic and lights of Neo Japan. It was time to put my feet up, have a shower and have a conversation with someone using my words, not my charade skills.

What a beautiful place. Worth the rainy ride. Thanks for a very straightforward and candid posts. For some reason I can’t stop reading, I read all parts of the Japan trip in one go. Sign of a good travel blog. Happy and safe travels to you.
Wow. I read all of this Japan trip in one go also. This was amazing. The writing and photos go great together. If there was money in it, I would say you should have become a photo journalist, it’s clear to me you are born to be one. Great travel blog.
