    • Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Take an umbrella with you or buy one in Japan. All japanese seem to own umbrellas. Everybody is carrying one if the day is clowdy. At every building there are umbrella stands at the door. Or there is a dispenser with plastic bags that fit to your wet umbrella.

    We bought umbrellas in Japan at 500 yen each. But later we found umbrellas in the 100 yen shop for 100 yen each(about 1 US$). In this picture the rain just stopped and we are carrying our umbrella. Maybe the rain stopped because of the statue of Neko. Neko means cat. This cat is calling good fortune..........

    • Miscellaneous: Most japanese attractions have stamps. So you can make a nice memory book from your japan trip if you take a small empty book with you. We also used the book to let people we met write something in it, with their adres. This way we didn?t loose any adres...

     you caught very nice pictures of castles, shrines, cherry-blossom, etc. I like your first Japan page with children and bicycle. Its a typical scene.
