Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage Road...

This is the start of our walk...down in the river valley below. 

“------Kuma­no Kodo-----
Ancient sacred road,
we walked again today...
Thru mikan orchards.

The pilgrimage­'s trail...
now paved with oranges,
among bamboo leaf!”

---------H­aiku------­--
Nihon cloud poem,
when filled to over flowing...
Raining down those words!”

This is where we are going...towards the distant castle...
