Autumn foliage just awesome!

  

Glad to be in Japan. These are the autumn pics of Miyajima. Quite a crowd at this time of the year. The ferries connecting MIYAJIMAGUCHI and MIYAJIMA leave every ten minutes, more frequent than usual. Very crowded but there are clever ways to navigate the move and be away from the noise. 

 Colorful leaves and caps!

 Looks like a sculpture.

 Maple leaving burning red.

 And yellow.

 Excellent Miyajima carving.

But the store is going to be closed soon and they are giving you 30% discount on most of their merchandize now. So sad this store, HIROKAWA, will be gone. This fall must be the last to see the store open and the master craftsman carving wood at a small workshop in the store.
