AizuWakamatsu Trip in May 2012

Since I have not written on our blog for many months there have been many events and ideas which have been left unblogged..

one of which was our trip to AizuWakamatsu in May. AizuWakamatsu is Akiko's birth town. We had a nice time there. Visited the Castle, Gardens, and I could appreciate learning about AKiko's childhood and school years.

 The castle at Aizu, amazing. 会津若松城 AizuWakamatsu-Jo.







 We visited a brewery, tasted sake, Akiko was tipsy :)








 Miso DenGaku, an amazing meal, great food, and unique Japanese vegetarian bbq cuisine.




 One of many beautiful, silent, grounds of worship and housing past life. 
 Organic Citrus Cake, nice design, and nice taste, however the coffee was terrible :)
