shirahama beach trip part two

here's the inside of the top temple. you're not suppose to take a picture, but the guy said that we could. :)
here's louise lighting some incense.
ange with the turtle.
here i am on the stairs. there where two flights like this that took you up the side of the mountain. and there were 1yen coins lining the sides, because it's suppose to be good luck to put a coin on every step. i think total we were looking at about 100 steps. that's alot of coins to carry around with you!
this is the view from the top of the tower. very lovely.
