The...um...afternoon after the night before.  Well, I didn't think I got hungover, but I sure did have a headache!  I was trying to be "artistic" in these photos (it's my second trip to Eiheiji, and I got all the standard snaps last time).  To be honest, I took LOADS of photos.  The few you see here are the less blurred ones.

 

It was a cold, rainy and foggy day, but the temple and surrounding area (what we could see of it) was still as beautiful as ever!  Tom and I staggered round with a very chipper Jose and Christina (who had not attended the celebrations the night before...sensible people).  Enjoy...

 

Oh, and if you missed the zen quotes last time, here they are again.
