January 16th 2011

Today we took the train
for a big trip...
(Martine, tu reconnais le gilet

et man la couverture??!!)



Long long trip...
So it was good for Amané to sleep....



And then we arrived in a city quite animated!
Miki do you recognize this place?

Yuta had to work about plums

so we went to a park to see some old trees...

Those are unagi (anguille) bones!

Hummm... a temple?

A huge temple! Narita san...

We just passed quickly inside...

Even if we are January the 16th

lot of people still come to pray for the new year.

It,s the 3rd temple in Japan

considerating the amount of people coming for new year.

Yuta, Miki, Nobuya and Hitomi

often came here before...

And then the park with plums (200!!)...

with snow!

first time for Amané!

Old trees protected against the cold...

Some parts of the park are like little forests...

others with some pounds...

it was nice with blue sky and snow...

sound of the little falls...

chinese lanterns...

some plums already blooming...

some old temples...

Amané was really nice all day long!

Again plum blooming...

some parts from 940....

And we went back...

before a stop in a warm coffee place...

(Sabine tu reconnais le petit livre?

je crois qu'il est devenu le doudou d'Amané...!!!!)

In the train coming back,

Amané made friends!!!

So nice day!!!!!
