Konnichiwa everyone!
My dear friend from Japan took my sister and me to visit Himeji Castle, one of the most beautiful and well-preserved Japanese castles. How amazing to see this part of history with my own eyes. To make the occasion even more special, I wore my favorite blue hydrangea flowers in my hair, to match the flowers blooming outside the castle. Thank you for coming with me on my adventure!

| The walls had windows and openings in a variety of shapes, for arrows in case of intruders |

| One of the castle lords was a Christian, and place a cross among the tiles along the roof |
 |
| We took off our shoes and walked through the castle, one floor at a time. Some rooms were lit with lanterns. |

| I love the heart designs in the nail cover plates! |
