Couple more pics:

What's a trip somewhere without sampling the local donuts? :)

Mt Fuji! 

Very impressive. 1 of 3 sacred mountains in Japan. It is roughly 11,500' tall.

Funny paddle boats. They are shaped like swans.

A few pics from Japan:

Outside a restaurant. Guess you can pick your meal for the evening.

Pretty cool way to park...car elevator rack.

Some cherry blossoms starting to come out

At the south entrance to Sankeien Garden.

Inside the garden. They had about 15 architectural pieces they moved from around the country in to be preserved. Some of the earliest ones were from the late 1400s.

A pond with some "snow" flowers on the right. I have no idea how to spell what the guide told me they are called in Japanese...but it means snow since the flowers are white and makes it look like trees are covered in snow.

Another architectural piece.

Cherry blossoms along with couple on the bridge in traditional garments.

Another view of the cherry blossoms.

"Look out, its Godzilla!"

A shrine/temple

Add caption

They have these "fountains" near the shrines. You are supposed to wash your hands and also rinse your mouth to make yourself pure before paying respect to the deities.

I think they don't like selfie sticks here. they have all these posts around tourist spots that you can put your phone in and take a selfie. Pretty funny.

A statue on the island of Enoshima.

Have no idea what this is...you are supposed to pay 100 yen...which is about a dollar. Not sure what happens. Took picture because it is a replica of the mouth of the truth in Rome, Italy.  It is supposed to be a lie detector. Starting from the Middle Ages, it was believed that if one told a lie with one's hand in the mouth of the sculpture, it would be bitten off. Not sure what it means or does here in Japan.

This chasm cuts through middle of island of Enoshima. Weird...but supposedly caused by tidal forces. It is huge chasm in the middle of the island.

This is the bell that couples are supposed to ring together to profess their love for each other. You can have your names engraved on the walls. Also, in the background there are lots of locks. You can put lock to solidify your love for each other like the bridge in Paris.

Another shrine.

With a sweet dragon above it.

Entrance to sea caves.

Super low ceiling in some parts. Bent half way over to get through...

Shrine/sacred stones inside. 

Viewing port between cavern 1 & 2.

Rock in center of pick is supposed to be turtle. 

Panorama between cavern 2 (left) and cavern 1 (right).

Cavern 2 is inhabited by dragon...this is pic of me with the dragon. They have crazy dragon sounds playing on speakers in cave!

Pedestrian bridge over to island Enoshima.

Temple in Kamekura

Cherry blossom around statues.

Pretty tree flowering.

Entrance to cave at the temple.

Super low ceiling!

Zen garden at temple.

24 meter high bronze Buddha!

Its hollow inside and you can go in. 

A few pics from last week:

Happy St Patrick's Day!

Colleen and Ry put together some leprechaun traps to catch him so he would be forced to give them his pot of gold.

Tuckered out pup

The notes to the leprechaun asking him to leave his gold.

Heeheehee...dad made some pots of gold...when they were asleep I messed up all their traps, littered their rooms with their stuffed animals to make it look like he left a giant mess while running around their rooms...but left them their own little pots of gold (chocolate gold coins).

So this is the Yokohama, Japan skyline. 

And at night with the GIANT ferris wheel lit up.

Looking pretty tired on the train after 24 hours of no sleep.

Pretty mural at the train station.

Streets are lined with planter boxes and lots of really nice plants.

Crazy vending machines everywhere with so much stuff!

Ever seen a 10,000 bill? Exchange rate is crazy at a little over 100:1...so roughly 10,000 yen is $100.

Shoebox size room

Crazy electric toilet with seat warmer.

But don't get electric seat wet cause it might electrocute you! Hahahaha...
