We're still adjusting to the local time. I woke up at 4:30, everyone else shortly after.

Who knows what this says?
A visit to a Shinto Temple
Do you see those people staring at us? People loved Divine in her Kimono.
We got to witness traditional Japanese wedding attire
This little girl is 8 and came to the temple with her mother and grandmother to take photos of her all dressed up, celebrating a special day for her. They couldn't believe we have 5 girls.
Oh Katy, I am loving all these photos from your trip. What a treasured memory this will be for your girls (and for you and Ryan)! It makes me want to go to Japan!
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping there is a Japan Part 3 and 4 and 5 and 6...
And then a Korea part 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 5...
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing experience!
ReplyDeleteI am thinking the sign says, "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints." Did I win?:) Awesome photos!
ReplyDeleteI love Divine's kimono. I, myself, have always wanted to wear a sari. A kimono seems like the next best thing.
ReplyDeleteawww so gorgeous! i love the kimono!
ReplyDeleteIndeed, Astorga Crew, you are right! {Un}fortunately, it was Conference Weekend, again. We watched the first session with all the missionaries instead of having church in Japanese.
