.......and when you reach the top. Baby Julio 
you've been here at your second trimester!


A breathe of fresh air! No wonder they lived
 longer than any person in the planet.


The Bamboo Grove 

When your heart is full
I wonder how come this bamboos are single stem? 
A closer look of the single stem bamboo. 
In so much awe of how they maintain
this towering bamboo stalk. 
Nature
 is really close to my heart. 
That is why my house is surrounded by 
bamboos and other threes.

Our day ended at Nishiki Market

Crowded and small passageways. 
No problem, weather is cool and no pickpocketers.

Freezing cold face

Dinner in a fastfood. Ordered  at a vendo machine, 
tickets presented at the counter. What a convenient 
way to order. In Osaka we encountered a one 
man fastfood called Yoshinoya. 
Great savings of manpower.

What a day!  After meal another 30 minutes walk
 to our #agodabasecamp! We felt so healthy 
because of all day walking and a glass of tea!
