Great photos Steven, but how did you get them, we weren't allowed to take photos last year.
You haven't mentioned what you bought at the Green Club.
So pleased you are enjoying the trip. :tu: :tu: :tu:

I know most love the trees in Japan that are pines and Junipers. But ohh my do I love the deciduous trees you are showing, the pinacle of inspiration for me.

Thanks greatly for taking the time to photograph and share these Steve :tu: I can only imagine how good they look to you in real life.

How you're lapping up the trip like I expect. Make the most of it and network for the next one ;)

Cheers,
Pearcy.

...ditto, all I managed was a sneaky one through the glass whilst we were lining up to go in. I did see some people snapping pics in there though, not sure if they got special permission or were just ignoring the rules?

We had permission to take pictures... so I took about 400! Then another 500 or so at the market :shock:

Today we are in Takamatsu for some bonsai, gardens and udon.

Regards,
Steven
