where we made our soba, and roamed the grounds.
pretty stream at Sekinomori Park
all ready in our aprons to make soba
with the soba we made! it was delicious :D
beautiful maple leaves
i couldn't get enough of the autumn colours throughout the trip! <3
playing at the park's playground. a tight fit, no?
i love bald trees too. not too common in spore, you know?
... hence i took loads of pictures of the bald trees around shirakawa
the wonderful place where we stayed the first night.
outdoor onsens with gorgeous views are one of the wonders of the world!
the path leading to Kita Onsen
just look at how our dinner was served!
my room (and room mate, haha)
with my trip buddies, sooyon and lissa
the awesome view from the outdoor onsen
dreamily foggy...

i love maple leaves! they are so beautiful!

(FREAKY SHIT MY ROOM IS VIBRATING NOW - EARTHQUAKE!!!)
... ok, thank goodness it only lasted a few seconds. back to my entry.
where we slept over on the second night.
it was weird snacking and drinking alcohol in a temple.
i liked the plain porridge + pickles breakfast too.
then again, i like food. ;p
the dharma i painted. pretty? :)
Ryuzoji Temple entrance
all of us ladies in the same big room
the painstakingly raked gravel on the temple grounds
i like this picture. our jumble of slippers at the doorway to our common room
big gong
why do the statues wear hats? 
reminded me of the things you shake out of a container at the temple (what i saw on tv at least). but these are h u g e
