On the first day, my family, fiance and I went to Todaiji in Nara straight from Kansai airport.

My fiance and I enjoyed a short trip to Kyoto.  We were so fortunate to see a real geisya in  Gion

Food in Japan.

And I took lots of photos in Shiga.  Shiga has the biggest lake in Japan; called Biwako Lake.

There is Hikone Castle near my house.

It started snowing on the next day of Christmas.  We enjoyed making yuki-daruma (snowman).  BTW, I didn’t know that snowman in other country has 3 body parts.  Japanese one always has only two.
