Kanagawa
Lunch just after we got off the train...we found a traditional Japanese omlette place...and tried a octopus omlette, pork omlette, mochi fried veg... tasted gooooood. also had some cool Japanese soft drink...tasted like sprite...but comes in cool bottles with a marble in it that you have to keep out of the way from the bottle neck or it stops you from drinking...
Marc weilding some spatulas...
the view on the way down to the seaside...the path was lined with tourist shops and restaurants.
View out to sea...the shadow to the right is a stone lantern...and there were a load of birds of prey circling over head...think they were keeping an eye on the fisher men...
the train station (eki) from which we took the 'Romancecar' (i have no idea why it's called this...it's not very romantic...) that we took back to Shinjuku...i fell asleep on the way back...think it was too much walking that made my little legs tired... :(
Marc weilding some spatulas...we took the tram from Kamakura further down the coast (its all manmade beach...weirdly enough there were people with surfboards everywhere...But NO waves! was hilarious...they seemed to be just floating, waiting for a big ship to past so that they could bob up and down a bit more than usual...even saw a few people with some special attachment on their bikes to carry a surf board on...)

me and Marc infront of the large buddha at the first temple we went to...
...a peacful garden behind the buddha
more sharp and shiny things than you can shake a stick at...this shop was beside a food shop...which sold (sweet) potato flavoured ice cream, yam jelly and sugar coated yam crisps... the latter were very nice...didn't try the ice cream.
the second temple we went to see...all the trees are very well groomed don't you think?
