That's right the leaves are changing here and it's beautiful. After not having a fall for the last few years it's fun to experience it again. And there are some really beautiful fall colors near us. One of my favorite experiences was going to the fall illumination at Show Kinen Park (again I love this park). They lit up the colorful leaves at night so they really stood out against the night sky. We also ran into our neighbor who just happens to be a photographer and we got a few really amazing pictures!
We also participated in leaf raking...what a pleasure.
And of course we went on fall hikes. Two beautiful waterfall hikes.
Hossawa Falls is a short hike, with a series of waterfalls. The last was the most spectacular. I believe Japan may be in competition with Hawaii for beautiful waterfalls.
Kongo Falls, was a much longer hike with a lot of stairs, but we had it all to ourselves. It was just as spectacular as Hossawa falls with a tunnel, rice patties, and a park extra to boot. This was probably my favorite hike so far.
Oh my goodness! Those pictures of the leaves are gorgeous! So cool that they light them up like that. I love how much you are seeing and experiencing. It all sounds amazing, and hopefully you get to experience Tokyo soon!
