Wouldn't it be nice to have so many pots that you can afford to use them upside down as makeshift stands! Nice pics, looks like a worthwhile trip ;-)

I can relate to your experience Mugen and looking forward to going back one day. Did you visit Omiya? As a couple of the trees seem recognisable, Thanks for jogging my memory :cool:
