After breakfast, we rode the train for about an hour to Kamakura. Kamakura is a quaint little town famous for its statue of Buddha sculpted over 700 years ago. Here's the information about the Buddha.
And here's the buddha.
We kept looking at at from different angles, but this was the most beautiful.
There were so many squirrels in Kamakura. Eric has lived in Japan for three years and these were the first squirrels he's seen. All of the Japanese tourists visiting the Giant Buddha were also very excited to see it. The squirrels had bushier tails than the ones in the US. They kind of looked like raccoon tails. You can't see the tail in this picture but you can see its face.
Finally, here's one more picture of the giant Buddha.

Remember Kiwi and Brutus, and buddah belly?
Okay so there is this juice that I got there that was like liquefied gummy bears! It was so delicious, I drank it every morning...I'm really sad to say that I don't remember what kind of juice it is, because I'd go out and buy some! You should totally score some of those fantastic combs for me! haha
