Kanazawa Trip (Day THREE)

We woke up on day three to a spectacular view of the mountains in the distance and were really surprised to see snow on them!!� We rounded out our Kanazawa trip with a stroll through the extremely fishy smelling morning (fish) market, a lovely stroll through the samurai village in the Naga-machi area, and last of all we took a train to the coast of the Sea of Japan!

The samurai house was definitely one of my favorite places in Japan. I’d love to own a duplicate of it. In a warmer climate. We then prepared to leave Kanazawa and go to the coast….

We took the train back to Nagoya and goofed off for the latter part of the trip, doing our best to be annoying foreigners. I’m pretty sure we succeeded.� :-)

And thus ended the Kanazawa trip! Mom and gramma went back to the states and were socked pretty good with jet lag. I went back to work and took my super sweet time to get all of these photos up…..better late than never I guess. At this rate, I should be back up to date before I leave Japan!� Hahah.

    How in the world do you remember all these details?! You weren’t taking notes, were you? Your blog will definitely help as I put together my Japan scrapbook. Thanks, daughter-dear :-)
