Kamakura

Kamakura is a short train ride from Tokyo, and is a popular tourist destination.






The Japanese school year starts in April, and most schools have big field trips the first week of school!


Another student group - 


Get your fortune, and if it's not to your liking, attach it here where the wind will "blow" the fortune away. 


For a small fee, display your own thoughts and wishes.


No field trip is complete without a group photo!

These brooms are traditional, and very effective!

This is what we all came here to see - the "Big Buddha"

Fruit and flower offerings to the gods.

And on our way out, how about some soft serve?
