Thanks for the effort of posting so many trees for our viewing pleasure Scott. I was lucky enough to spend time in Omiya and what you say is true.. When i saw the trees i had trouble coming back to my collection. But as you say, you get over it and move on. The inspiration is wonderful though and we soldier on.

Hey no problems with posting the pics, I'm glad you're enjoying them. As I've said it's very rare that these trees can be photographed like this so I'm more than happy to share them with you all!

Here's some more.

It was explained to me that this little tag means this tree is of significant importance and cannot be sold outside of Japan. This award can also be taken away from the tree.

Yours truly freezing his coconuts off to get a pics with some lovely trucks in the background.

The truck stops are really like little shopping malls, multi-level and this one had a security guard!

Anyway, that's it for this little part of the adventure. I hope everyone enjoyed!
