Thank you for the links!

Haha, I love those kimono/baby photo's! Thank you! :)

I must admit in wondering how those girls can work efficiently whilst wearing those kimonos.

The are very beautiful though.

Most likely they are just greeters and not actually working the ticket counter, but if they are not accustomed to wearing them, it may be a bit cumbersome for prolonged periods of time....

Lovely indeed....

Looks like it's only a one off thing for new year is it?

Possibly but there are also many other wonderful and fascinating pictures with history amidst these links.

I was so bewitched by the brilliant colours and patterns of the kimonos.

I would love to see how they are made.

I am sure it would be a lovely welcome for tourists to be met by these enchanting visions wearing traditional dress.

Today’s Japan Photo: Mount Zao 蔵王山 — alafista.com Here are some photos of mountains etc including history and mythology etc.

what a helpful site this is. PS: having seen some of these photographs of Japanese SCENERY etc it makes me wish for a helicopter flight across the country. Or even better-- by Balloon.

I wonder if there are good videos of this panoramic scenery.
