+==== Guided tour ====
+
+Pictures of our day-long [[Pictures/vacation/japan_2009/Nikko/waterfalls_tour]] are now online.
+Our friendly guide, the Buddhist monk whose name I forgot, answered many of our pending questions
+about Japanese traditions and religion.  Hiking through these sacred mountains and woods was an
+enjoyable experience.

+==== Nikko Temple Area ====
+In the afternoon, we went to visit the [[Pictures/vacation/japan_2009/Nikko/world_heritage_site]].
+One would expect to grow bored of Shinto and Buddhist temples after seeing many of them
 all over Japan, but visiting the Nikko temple area was once again an extraordinary experience.
 And I could finally spot a few [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miko]]s too!
