We got up in the morning, to, like, see a BIG buddha, 'n stuff.  The place we stayed at, warrants mentioning.  The people who ran the place, were VERY friendly—exceptionally helpful.  The place itself, however was . . . like a Hobbit warren.  Seriously. –My shoulders barely cleared the walls—and the staircases!  Wow. Oh. And very nice, gay Germans.

      –And what did we awaken to?  Another colony of Japan's giant spiders:

      ( :p :P )



      Now here is something that . . . causes a lot of upset, and misunderstanding about Japan.  Notice the red symbol?  It means, like, a temple, 'n stuff.  –Nothing more. Get over it.

      :p ;)



      The old and the new.

. . . .



      One big buddha.




      For some reason, I found this HILARIOUS!  –He's got windows in the back!

      :) ;)



      ANOTHER giant spider.



      One could like, go inside, 'n stuff.



      The construction techniques, were totally novel, and brilliant.  Hats off to this untold genius—his name erased from history.

      I hope you guys can read this.



      I don't know what causes this—I have been told it is termites.  I cannot verify this though.



      I don't know what this is, either.  It was a concrete slab, of unknown (forgotten?) purpose—all by itself.  I couldn't investigate further.  It was fenced completely in.



      I guess this, is for placing over the crib, of baby ninjas.



      I loved this tree.

      :) :)
