It's a 40' (12 m) fall from that veranda to the ground and legend has it that if one survives the fall/jump a wish would be granted. We were hungry and opted for lunch instead. #🍜 We arrived around 8:30 am to avoid tour groups and school trips; it opens at 6 am and was packed by 9:30. #Kyoto #京都 #kiyomizudera #清水寺

Snack time with @margarettewolfe. I liked the azuki bean, she preferred the sweet soy sauce glaze for the #mitarashidango. 🍡 #glamping #awesomesauce #みたらし団子 #kyoto #京都 #itwassoromantic #retro_japan_

Just a little snowy out there today in #Niigata Prefecture. The 3 1/2 hour drive took almost 6. Absolutely beautiful to see from the warm car though! Nearly 10" fell today and 6-8" is predicted for tomorrow. Perfect for ⛷ and 🏂 #雪 ❄️ #新潟県

Highlights from New Year's Eve with @margarettewolfe at #TsurugaokaHachimangū in #Kamakura. Okonomiyaki, crab, chocolate covered bananas and the best part...relaxed open container laws for my beer along Komachi Dori and a chuhi for trek from the station. #鎌倉 #正月 🎍🐓⛩
