Im newish to Tumblr so I have so much to share from days past~ When we went to Japan for our honeymoon in 2015 we booked through InsideJapan tours and I couldn't make this guy's name up so I took a pic of our welcome letter!

Here are some more pictures from my time in Japan! From Tokyo, we caught the shinkansen (bullet train) to Nagano, where we saw Zenkoji Temple and stayed in a shukubo (traditional temple lodging). Early the next morning, we got to observe some of the Buddhist rituals and have a traditional shōjin ryōri breakfast! It was an amazing experience! 💙 . . . . . . #Japan #insidejapan #insidejapantours #Japanese #vacation #japanvacation #mtfuji #zenkoji #zenkojitemple #nagano #yamato #nippon #buddhism (at Nagano, Nagano) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu3mAl_HrbI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1l1xqbdrr8tb1

Remembering Mt. Fuji sunrise surprise, 1 week ago. It had been hidden by clouds the day before, but greeted us at 5 a.m. for our last few hours in Japan! I recommend the Prince Hakone Lake Resort for the best sunrise view (reserved on gold-boat.com). #hakone #nature #travelserendipity #mountfuji #insidejapan #reflection #lodging (at The Prince Hakone Lake Ashinoko)
