Day 4 - Japan Trip 2008 - Scenes around Arashimaya (2)

A rare pink cherry blossom
This is the most beautiful and biggest cherry blossom trees. Just compare the car, you can imagine the size of this tree.

Like this Toyota Auris? It looks like Toyota Yaris in Malaysia. It's very sporting look.

Day 2 - Japan Trip 2008 - Himeji Castle (4)

A closer look as we walked near the stair to the castle.


I like this tree very much especially its branches, is it kind of rain tree?

Castle gargoyle -- an imaginary tiger-headed fish, called kinshachi (金鯱); this motif is used as a talisman for fire prevention.
