More Japan stuffs.

Ok, so this first picture is the Yomeimon gate at the Toshogu shrine in Nikko. Nikko is a small city/national forest that has many famous shrines for Buddhist and Shinto religions. It's a beautiful area. The next picture is of the 5 story pagoda at the same Nikko area.



















This next picture is of a giant Buddha statue. I am not sure exactly how tall, but somewhere around 35-45 feet tall. It was amazing. Then, Aaron, Kit and I getting ready for a long day of hiking around Japan! More to come soon!
