I am currently in Japan but have no time to take pictures or upload anything much, so I will use some ready-made ones to try and express all my love for its beautiful landscapes. Especially now autumn is coming…
In case you’re wondering, it is Friday here already…
My thoughts go out to the poor Japanese whose homes are flooded or washed away by mudslides in the eastern part of Japan. Sadly, these landscapes above seem as remote to them now as they do to the rest of us.

Oh, lucky you to be in Japan, Marina Sofia! How lovely! And thank you for sharing these ‘photos, even if they aren’t yours. I can’t wait to see the ones you take when you upload them.
I’m reading The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet, which is set in Japan and it’s making me accccccccccccccccccchhhhhhheeee to go there! Looks gorgeous! 😀
Hope you’re having a great time during your trip, MS, that you’re eating lots of sushi, and that you’re finding at least some time for sightseeing!
Those are lovely, and I’m very jealous – have a lovely time!
Oh my word,those colours. How stunning!
Wow, I was in Japan last spring and I think the Autumn colours are just as beautiful as the cherry blossoms. I really want to go back now, I hope you are enjoying it.
I love the golden walk where the gingkos are. The video I am using for my poetics has a scene there. So much beauty but the flooding is bad now. I hope you are in an unaffected area.
It is rather sad – far too much rain this year in Japan. Fortunately, I seem to be in an area that is not too badly affected and the sun has even come out a little now.
I am glad you are safe. This isn’t the usual rainy time. Weather all over the planet is confused.
Thanks for the pictures! They are lovely. Even if you don’t have time to get around and play tourist, you will certainly get a good “soaking” of cultural difference!
Beautiful pictures. It’s hard to choose a favourite this week…I like them all! Hope your trip is going well.
How lucky! Enjoy your trip! I hope you see many of these golden leaves and gorgeous views. Tell us more next time!
Gorgeous, so vivid! I hope the jetlag is wearing off, Marina, and that you have a geat time.
Very jealous that you are in Japan. I hope it is as wonderful as I imagine it to be. Have a fantastic time 🙂
