Hello all, sorry for the long absense. The following and I guess surrounding are pics from Mr. Eric and Yumi Anderson's Wedding at the World Heritage Sight of Nikko, Tochigi, Japan (the Toshogu Shrine).
On the left is the Happy Couple, Adam, and the Shinto priest who looks a lot like the crown prince of Japan.
THis is a lame attempt by me to work the friggin' Digital Camera. Eric has been smiling all day. Plus he just got married. I need to change my undies cause they are soaked with butt sweat.
Stacks of Sake for the temple, Just thought I'd take a pic.
The procession. I am good at taking pics of the back of people's heads.
Below is Rob thinking about how nice rain might be...or even a cool breeze, beer, or sponge bath (opps that's me).
Just outside the Shrine. Gotta watch your step or all the tourists (not seen but lots present) don't get a good laugh.
A pic of inside the hot shrine. The photogragher was takin' pics, so I felt no aversion. I shouldn't get in trouble for this pic.
A pic of a hot Dno. Notice the tourists in the background. Some stopped us as we were leaving the shrine to take "our" picture (mine and Rob's).
A bad pic of the Sleeping Cat of Nikko (I think, I really don't think I'd just take a pic of the stairs).
A Pic of a lady pointing at the Sleeping Cat.
And a pic of our group and Eric and Yumi (notice I am not pictured cause I am taking the photo's).
And another pic of our group and Eric and Yumi (notice I am not pictured cause I am taking the photo's).
Thanks "cousin" Eric. He was at My wedding, Rob's wedding, Billy's birth (got to see and hold him too...cause we foreigners can get away with stuff), and helped me out when I was in the hospital (we played magic and bullshited). I was honored to be there for him. Good luck Eric and Yumi!!! May your days be fun yet sane.
