the beginning of pictures

The Imperial Palace Wall in Kyoto, the Golden Pavilion in Kyoto, the gate in the water at Miyajima (near Hiroshima), the original hear-speak-see no evil monkeys at Nikko, and a temple and pagoda at Horyuji (near Nara).

Too many photos, I had a hard time picking ones to post. I took over a thousand pictures in that one week, and I have to still go through and label all of them :(
