Relaxing walks around the village (mosquitoes not withstanding):

Random foodstuffs:

An early morning drive to see Aso-san:

And the volcano up close:

A Noh performance in front of the floodlit castle:

Former residence of Hosokawa Gyobu (and when the current owners are finished with it, I’ll have it!)

Many thanks to everyone in the zoo for their hospitality:
