Colors of Fall

Though we've been super busy these last few weeks, we did have some time last weekend to go to the final days of the Fall Festival and enjoy the beautiful fall colors. Maybe we just haven't been home in awhile and can't remember what it's like there, but the colors of the changing leaves in Japan (atleast Hirosaki) are so vibrant and beautiful!

This spot here (with all the red behind us) is our favorite place in the park in the fall. The leaves are so red, it's simply amazing to look at!!

And Iwaki looks just wonderful with the mixture of the colors of the setting sun and leaves.

Also, though nothing to do with the colors of fall, yesterday was a special holiday here in J-pan:

POCKY DAY!!!!! (11/11- 1 looks like a pocky)

.. so of course we had to do some major celebrating by buying some delectable special edition Pocky!

YUM!
