Japan again: Matsumoto


It's that time of year, and I'm ready to be back in Japan. This week, a few photos from our trip in August, 2007.
I took lots of photos of beautiful manhole covers that year. This one is in Matsumoto, and represents one of
their local crafts: decorative balls covered with silk thread.
Matsumoto is near Nagano, where the Winter Olympics were held in 1998.
