Shizuoka, Minami Izu Japan

My wife, the dogs, and I went camping down in Minami Izu on the 7th and 8th and thought I'd share some of the pictures with you. If your are interested in the entire photo series check it out here: http://skillful-abbot.textamerica.com/?_ctgry=26988

Yes and no... there were a few wise guys on the beach, but they pretty much did their own thing. I did put my bag down and walked to a near by tide pool to catch critters and when I came back one lone macaque had opened and threw all my stuff out. Video camera was safe, but barely. Luckily there was no food, but one day someone might see a macaque in Tommy Hilfiger t-shirt and some Nikey shorts.

Yes... It is Japan. Minami Izu city in Shizuoka prefecture. East of Nagano. Definitely, Japan has a lot of natural beauty to offer...
I've been here 9 years and it still amazes me...
