Saturday we picked up Norie and Leia and went to the Owl park. It was a National holiday so the roads were crammed with cars and the trip was about four hours each way.
The main building had cages of owls and a gift shop with a huge central greenhouse.
The staff came out with birds that could be held and there was an owl show while we were there.
Leia got a cup of fish food and made sure every carp in the pond got a tidbit.
Variations of these pictures made it to my quilt diary.
In the middle of the owl show, the owl stopped his performance in front of me to say hello.
Although the day was cloudy as we set out, we had a great view of Mt Fuji as we left the park.
This picture is from Zia's camera.
I still haven't figured out the settings on my new camera to get both fore and back-lit areas showing.
Here is the whole gang.
And one of the old folks.
Sunday we went in the afternoon to Hama-rikyu. We took a break for lunch with Mitsumori-san and then went back for a few more pictures.
Shutter bugs.
And a few shots from my new camera.
Many thanks for this great camera. I LOVE it!
So you see, we are all having fun. I hope you enjoy these shots.
