On some special nights, the Kiyomizu-Dera Temple in Kyoto, Japan will have a light show. It was pretty cool we got to see it because it wasn’t something we planned on. I think it brings an interesting perspective to the temple but mostly it reminds me of a light saber protecting of the city of Kyoto. This means you, Godzilla.
Preparing for our trip to Tokyo this weekend! I can’t wait. We have a few plans already like a reservation to the Robot Restaurant. If you haven’t seen that Anthony Bourdain episode of Japan, you totally should check it out! It looks trippy. Otherwise, I’ve been busy preparing blog posts for while I’m gone. So even though I’ll be away, it will be like I never left 🙂 I also plan on updating my instagram with some behind the scene travel images, so follow me there if you aren’t already.
This image is from my trip to Iceland a few years ago. Preparing blog posts for Japan made me go back through some older travel photos. I this one is particularly cool with all the shilouttes.
Three things I was grateful for this week:
1. Finding out that I’ll be in time for the cherry blossoms in Tokyo! Can’t freakin’ wait for our trip.
2. See you next year, snow.
3. Being able to rest this weekend. I’ve been sick all week 🙁
That 4 days of rain, foggy sunsety red glow thou! Praise hands emoticon!
Another one from the other night. This one was right before sunset and the sun was shining directly on the trees in Maryland. I had never seen the trees glow so red before. I instantly felt like I was in the Southwest somewhere.
The other day I was out in the city waiting for the sun to set when I stumbled onto these red plants in the Tulip Library. Actually I don’t know if they would be considered plants or flowers. Either way, I thought they were gorgeous. The whole time I was editing this picture I kept on thinking, ‘if this were a wrapping paper, I’d totally wrap all my christmas presents in this print’.
