Kamakura with Kenka

Another amazing day out from Tokyo with Kenka.  Short train ride to Kamakura and here we are again.  Managed to paddle in the Pacific too - sooooooooooo warm at this time of year.


Tsunami warnings everywhere.. what to look for


Then off to Hase - Dera - a beautiful temple which is devoted to the souls of  babies born before they could live - Water Babies.  There are literally thousands of little statues to these children.  How lovely to be able to publicly share the untimely birth of these babies.
