The mountain in the background of the first photo is the elegant Mount Fuji. The snow-capped peak makes it look very stately. It seems like an apparition hovering over us. Oh, and my shirt in the second photo says "free style rocker".




The ancient temples in Japan are not only structurally beautiful, they are surrounded by trees and mountains which add to their charm. The young man in the third photo is praying by a "love rock". As you might have guessed, it is supposed to bring luck to one's love life. I'm visible in the last photo, drinking from one of the three taps of water from the mountains. Drinking from a particular tap blesses you with something, beauty, for example.
