Monks, graveyards and pancakes

Watching the monks doing their morning prayers at 6am.

Walking through the magical old graveyard on Koyasan with the huge 600 year old trees and the moss covered stones with the rain falling and the sun shining. It was perfect and beautiful and I took a hundred photos.

Lighting the incense in the rain in the temple with 10,000 lanterns that never go out.

Pancake for second breakfast.

Double pancakes for dessert. After sushi starter and gyoza main. All in different places.

Shrines, temples, biscuits, KitKat’s and stroking

The big red sensō-ji shrine.

Wandering around Yanaka looking at gravestones and temples.

The salty sweet rice cracker biscuit.

Chestnut KitKat’s

The gif of me stroking the red walls from yesterday.
